The words used in those responses form everyone’s word pool for the next rounds. Each player answers an opening “icebreaker” question using at least five words in their response. Job Job has you pull from a pool of words to answer interview-style questions. This is quite a fun addition to the Jackbox family and probably the stand-out title in this pack. There are great laughs to be had and lots of jump-up-off-the-couch moments of excitement to be seen. This game was a lot of fun, and I had some matches where even after earning the most significant slice, the person with the smallest ended up winning the final spin and the whole game. The person with the most correct answers wins the round and gets a chance to increase their odds on the wheel. Most of the questions use multiple answers, and you’ll encounter things like “what movies did a specific star appear in?” From here, you’re given a list of 12 answers to pick from. The trivia portion is divided into three rounds, and the questions are mixed. The player’s goal is to spin a wheel to earn points, each player gets a piece of the wheel, but players who do well on rapid-fire trivia will earn themselves larger slices, essentially giving them a better opportunity for the wheel to land on them at the end.
This pack reaches back into Jackbox’s bread and butter, trivia! The game has this Legends of the Hidden temple vibe with a giant ancient sundial that acts as your host. If they don’t want to play, they’ll still enjoy the cute centipede corgi used as the drawing timer. Because of the added drawing time in creating the two-frame animation, this one may not hit as well for newcomers, but after a game or two to show them how it’s done, I bet you’ll have them on their phones asking for the room code. You’re able to add in your own prompts so that you can personalize the games or give them some more variety. The game plays similarly to the older iterations you’re given a hand of absurd captions and limited tools to draw them with. Adding this new feature gives your images some life and gives the Drawful formula extra spunk, even if it isn’t a huge change. Drawful Animateĭrawful returns to the Party Pack and adds the new ability for two-frame animation. As with previous reviews, I will be going over each game included in this pack individually.
There is a little something to tickle the fancy of most of your average Jackbox Party Pack players. The games don’t rest on their laurels either, each Party Pack has tried something new in addition to keeping something familiar, and in Party Pack 8, Jackbox Games Inc. The Jackbox Party games have been around for a few years now, and each numbered edition has been a banger for parties, hangouts, sleepovers, and streams.
