About The Jackbox Party Pack

The Jackbox Party Pack is a collection of party games developed by Jackbox Games, Inc., the first game in the franchise it contains five classic games You Don’t Know Jack, Fibbage XL, Drawful, Lie Swatter, and Word Spud. For 1-100 players, use your phones, tablets, or controllers making it the perfect easy-in entertainment piece for your next game night or party!

• You Don’t Know Jack – For 1-4 Players, answer trivia questions for money and have the opportunity to “screw” other players by forcing them to answer the toughest questions. Answer wrong and you’ll lose cash… unless however you discover the coveted Wrong Answer of the Game.
• Fibbage XL – For 2-8 Players, everyone is presented with an obscure trivia fact that’s missing one key detail. The objective is to fill in the blank so that it fools others into thinking it’s the truth.
• Drawful – For 3-8 players, each of them receives a weird and unique prompt that they must try to draw on their mobile device. After each “artist” presents their work, everyone else anonymously submits a title that could fit this bizarre drawing. Your goal is to somehow find the correct prompt while fooling other players into selecting your decoy answer.
• Lie Swatter – For 1- 100 players, they are given a fact and must quickly decide if it’s True or a Lie. Get it wrong and the bug gets squashed! But get it right…and the bug also gets squashed, but you get points. Up to 100 players can drop in and out at any time, even after the game has already started.
• Word Spud – For 2-8 players, one player is given a simple word, such as “real” or “life.” Then, the next player types in their own ideas for a witty word or phrase to follow it. Players vote to either keep the addition or nix it, then the spud passes to the next in line. The “goal” is for you and your friends to make the weirdest word cloud you can.

The Jackbox Party Pack Reviews

If you are able to get a decent group of people together and understand that it’s inevitable if not completely ideal that this game requires an internet connection, there is plenty of fun and laughs to be had here. There’s a good mixture of trivia, improvisation and interpretation that’s sure to cause a stir among friends and family, and the added bonus of being available on the go (with a Wi-Fi hotspot) makes this set a great time.

Nintendo Life

Jackbox Party Pack 1 & 2 each contain their own unique set of games for hours of hilarity with your friends, and having this available on the go with the Switch makes it all the sweeter. Each pack contains a wide variety of games such as the first containing You Don’t Know Jack and Drawful and the second containing Fibbage 2 and Quiplash XL. Solo players beware, this game is primarily for parties.

GamingTrend

Overall I was really impressed with the quality of games included in Jackbox Party Pack. All but one of them are very solid experiences that can always dish up a fun time. I was literally on the floor laughing during a game of Word Spud, and every other game brought out the best (and worst) of my friends and family. Of course your mileage will vary by how many people you can play with, so make sure to invite many friends to the party if you want to truly have an event to remember.
