I want more unique ideas like Bomb Corp or Trivia Murder Party, even if those ideas don’t necessarily mesh well with huge amounts of players.
The specificity you can embrace with good friends, family members, or partners results in inevitable hilarity. Instead of business as usual were you invent ridiculous facts and try to make others believe them, you’re asked to come up with lies about the others in the room. Fibbage 3 is the one outstanding game in the box not only because it was good in its previous incarnations, but also due to the new game mode, “Enough About You,” a title best played with folks you know very, very well. Unfortunately, Jackbox Party Pack 4, while still enjoyable, is the weakest of the Party Packs I’ve played so far in terms of the actual games. You’ll never, ever play the same game twice or run into the trouble of a few players already knowing all the “cards in the box,” so to speak. But I’ve always found Jackbox to shine brightest as a party game, especially since the online nature of the thing allows for constantly updating, unique prompts in each title. Games can be from anywhere from 2-16 players (it varies according to the game) and, as with other Jackbox Party Packs, can include hundreds more audience members voting or offering their own prompts or ideas to trip up the players, making it a favorite for streamers. That’s why I’m eternally grateful for the Jackbox Party Packs, including the latest rendition, Jackbox Party Pack 4. Many of my adult friends and family members don’t game much anymore, if at all, and when mixed with those that do at evening get-togethers, throwing Mario Kart or Smash Bros into the mix tends to divide the party more than it unites it. Though I often look fondly on Nintendo’s talent for developing (or at least publishing on their platforms) fun co-op or competitive titles for evenings with fellow gaming nerds, the reality as a busy adult is that those nights are few and far between.
