    Evolve provides a Hamachi-like tunneling engine service that allows players worldwide to play "LAN-Only" games, Evolve, Hamachi and Gameranger all have this service, Garena+ is merely a Skype-esque chatting program with a 'now playing' status added.

    P2PVPN creates a virtual private network for you which behaves like a physical network (e.g. your network at home). But instead of using an Ethernet cable to connect computers P2PVPN uses secure Internet connections.
