Kayak Attack

Procrastinate from work and try to score some sweet loot in the process

With most of the Olympic tickets now dispersed, your best chance of getting one now lies in the hands of the Games’ partners and sponsors. Networking giant Cisco – which Expert Reviews readers may know best for its Linksys range of home routers, including the award-winning WRT320N – is responsible for the London Olympics’ network infrastructure and has a share of the tickets as a result.

The company’s taken time out from networking the games to produce a game that’s more within the scope of non-Olympians, giving all of us an opportunity to win some of those coveted tickets. KayakAttack is a Flash game which you can play in your browser. All you have to do is log your score and submit some information about yourself and your role at work to be entered into a random draw for Olympic tickets.
