For those of us who live in homes without fireplaces, it is best to stay in front of a long fire of videos on Netflix or YouTube. Fortunately, game developer Supergiant Games created a Yule diary throughout the day based on its successful game. Hades – what happens to be the choice of the Polygon for the game of the year 2020.
You can enjoy Supergiant’s House of Hades – no less in 4K! – directly from YouTube. Offers 12 hours of uninterrupted live fire, complete with pomegranate wreaths and golden skulls. Underworld ambient sounds really help the mood.
It’s a nice change of pace from the Fireplace series for your home available on Netflix – I’m a Birchwood edition guy, and a great vibe if you play Hades in portable mode on your switch
Alternatively, if you’re looking for something warm and infused with Pokémon, there’s Charmander’s Fireside Slumber. The Pokémon company released that ASMR video earlier this year, allowing viewers to enjoy the soothing sounds of a campfire and Charmander’s inextinguishable tail. (Although Charmander’s Fireside Slumber looks more like a wildfire than a cold cabin fireplace, I find it less relaxing.)
