Who says that life in cities like Mumbai is
fast? Or is it that humans are exceedingly adjusting to what ever comes their
way and more. I stay in the so called fastest paced Indian city, Mumbai. And
have been keenly observing the people around me. Here everyone has kind of molded themselves in the rhythm in which the city moves. They have learnt to
make the most of the time they have. Travelling time is exceeding high in this
city. If you are commuting by road, the dreadful traffic jam is going take a toll
of your patience. For using the other modes of transport you have to dreadfully
fight the humongous crowd. But Mumbai is a city of Marathon
Everyone here including me use their long
travel time for entertainment, hobbies or producing something creative. For
e.g. I read or blog during travelling. However a huge chunk of the population
of not only Mumbai but other places as well, indulges into playing games on
their mobiles during travel. Hence these games are kind of stress buster to
many. Some of these games are mindless and just time pass while some are
informative and intellectual. And it actually depends on the gamer mind set
of what he chooses to play.
I am not too much into playing games and
generally every night would end up fighting with my husband on his weirdest (as
per me and definitely not him) addiction to playing games. I somehow found
going around killing people, or fighting zombies boring. Though he always tried
to convince me that gaming really helps in coming out of the stress and tension
of office, but I could hardly buy it. To me my books were my best friends and I
needed no one to get into that space and especially not games.
When I came across this topic on Indivine
“Getting lucky has never been this easy” I was immediately attracted by the
name. However going further I got to know that it was about some mobile game,
so I thought unfortunately it is not for me. Until Sunday morning, when I again
visited Indivine! The name “Lucky 6” intrigued my fancies. “It
might not be a game of simple fighting or racing” I thought aloud. “So it’s
fine to try it out.”
My hubby dearest extended his hand to help me
download the app Fatcat in my android
phone. After registering I tried my hands in playing a round. To my utter
surprise, I really liked it. Lucky 6 as
the name suggests is more like gambling without investing a penny. Choosing (or
rather putting your bets on) six leading brands and depending on their stocks
on the game day, we can win. I thought the idea was cool, more like the share
markets. But the good news was, as there is no requirement of investment; it
spares the anxiety associated with the same. Further it is not a dull headed game,
because to know on which company to put your bets on, you need to have a little bit
of idea about the market.
In short I found this idea of lottery-style
game unique and new. A relief to people like us, who cannot really derive
pleasure from killing dreadful zombies <wink>. It gives you scope to
think, study and also win without investing anything. So it’s a win-win
situation for the gamer and hence is ought to be attractive to him. In cities
of India India
Lastly Entertainment,
stress busting and prizes in one damn package….seems to be a good deal…What
say??
