When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

: The term is simple no doubt, but does not explain the behavioural pattern of the terms Ugrankar has asked for.

Other distant option could be vinod for game

Shruti Nagar
: somewhat near, but again, games can also be competitive, in which case 'vinod' doesnt seem to fit.

KreeDAye(n) or Khelkood & Khel
A game is a recreational activity involving one or more players. This can be defined by A) a goal that the players try to reach, B) some set of rules that determines what the players can or can not do. Games are played primarily for entertainment or enjoyment, but may also serve an educational or simulational role.
A sport consists of a physical activity or skill carried out with a recreational purpose: for competition, for self-enjoyment, to attain excellence, for the development of a skill, or some combination of these. A sport has physical activity, side by side competition, and a scoring system. The difference of purpose is what characterises sport, combined with the notion of individual (or team) skill or prowess.
There is a difference between sports and games. Sports involve physical activity. Chess is a game, not a sports. The above suggestions are based on this concept.

Anant Bedarkar
: The explanation is to the point. One more detail is, although not limited to, sport involves outdoor activity likr horse-racing, fishing, surfing, hunting and cricket, football, hocky, athletics are the examples. Games is a very generalised term.
