Hearts were shattered for a second time on 21 April, after the ban on social gatherings was said to be extended. For those who aren’t fortunate enough to live under the same roof, this meant spending two months apart from their other half. To all the lovebirds out there, we've compiled a list of ideas to bridge the gap between you and your +1 with technology.
Play games
No, mind games aren’t on the list. We’re talking Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPG) like Club Penguin, Maple Story, Audition and Habbo Hotel. Animal Crossing is (still) blowing up the internet but if you’re not a fan, revisit your childhood with these old school games and see if you still have what it takes to be the best penguin or dancer out there.
Alternatively, mobile gamers can turn to classics like Mobile Legends, Rules of Survivor and PUBG. Other games include Hide Online and Cooking Battle, inspired from the famed Overcooked. What’s a game without bantering? Unleash your competitiveness in real time over a video call, which makes for easier communication too!
Watch movies together
Traditional movie dates have been shelved with Coronavirus on the loose but thankfully, couples can still catch up on movies online. For the best experience, take advantage of the many platforms and Chrome extensions out there to stream movies in real time. Some come with cool features like video call, chat rooms and the added ability to pause videos on Netflix Party in case someone needs to make a quick toilet run. Other platforms such as Watch Party, SyncPlay and Kast work just as well too.
If you’re a Netflix and chill kind of couple, we’ve got a not-so-dirty little secret for you: Durex is looking for brand ambassadors! Choose from our selection of 3 campaigns with payouts ranging from $15 up to $51.50.
