Santa’s little helpers
Jingle Jam kicked off over a decade ago in 2011, when two members of popularYouTubegaming channel The Yogscast asked their subscribers to donate to charity rather than gifting them presents that Christmas.
The response was overwhelmingly positive, earning their chosen charity over $100,000 / £81,516 / AU$146,666 – and ever since then, it’s become one of the most heartwarming Christmas traditions.
Your money could also go to one of the following equally important charities:

If that doesn’t thaw your heart, Mr Scrooge, perhaps this wealth of games might do the trick:
Feel Good (Inc)
Among the choice offerings is particularly topical Plague Inc: Evolved. A PC version of the popular mobile game that turned out to be eerily prophetic, you’ll be engineering a deadly disease with the goal of either wiping out humanity entirely, turning them into zombies or vampires, or enslaving them to worship a strange neurological parasitic worm.
Hope you’ve been paying attention to public health news because you really have no excuse not to be a pathogenic genius at this point.
If you’re after something a bit lighter and sillier, or if you’re just a massiveStrayfan, Ato might appeal to you. In this cute yet deadly platformer gem, you play as a blade-wielding kitty that is well-versed in the samurai arts. Pixellated graphics and sidescrolling galore, it’s equal measures quirky and exciting. If only our ginger tabby cat’d had some swords at his disposal.
Whatever your tastes, there may well be something for you in the mega sackful of Jingle Jam games.
