I really like the diversification of focus for VPN services. I haven't seen Evolve nor Cloak before, but both are great ideas. My friends used to like Hamachi, but recently have been crazy about Tunngle -- based more around gaming with random internet strangers, it uses the 7.x.x.x block.

These solutions are amazingly better than trying to host a VPN from DDWRT on a low-powered router -- when the game host isn't on the router's LAN, there's a massive bandwidth penalty. It's worst on RTS and MOBA games, especially Demigod, where clients synchronize gamestate not just with the server, but with all peers. This isn't immediately obvious when hosting games, but every 100ms, each of the 6 clients are sending the checksum of ~1.2gb to 6 other clients, through your router. Twice.
