What is The Jackbox Party Pack 9?
This collection contains five separate party games that players join using phones or tablets. You sort falling trivia answers, invent false answers and object backstories, draw and write for others to guess, or compete as reality-show contestants. In one game, a wizard turns players into frogs trying to become human again. Remote groups can play by sharing a screen over a call, but there is no online matchmaking.
For you if...
- +you enjoy party games shaped by other players' answers
- +you like drawing, wordplay, and playful role-play
Not for you if...
- −you want built-in matchmaking for remote play
- −you prefer solo play to group writing and guessing
