Product Information
The Jackbox Party Pack is a series of party video games with a near-annual release schedule since 2014. Each of the games are designed to be played in large groups, usually up to 8 players.
Jackbox Party Pack 6 was released on 10/17/2019 and consists of 5 games:
- Trivia Murder Party 2
- 1–8 Players
- Trivia Murder Party 2 is the sequel to Trivia Murder Party and follows a similar format. In addition to new questions, it includes new Killing Floor mini-games and special items which can help or hinder their ability to survive.
- Role Models
- 3–6 Players
- In each game of Role Models, players vote for a category and then try to match the other players (including themselves) to one of the items from that category. Players receive points if any of their matches is the majority favorite of the group, and extra points can be won if the player marked their answer as "99% sure" and was correct.
- Joke Boat
- 3–8 Players
- Joke Boat has players make jokes based on a selected list of words brainstormed by players at the start of the game. During the first two joke rounds, players are given the start of joke prompt with a missing word they select from a random selection of the brainstormed words. They then finish the joke. Pairs of jokes are given to the other players to vote for their favorite. The final round has players take an existing joke setup and try to write a better joke than the original one.
- Dictionarium
- 3–8 Players
- Dictionarium is where players create fake definitions, words, and sentences using those words. The game can either be played where the players are given a fake word as a prompt or a fake slang saying. Players create a definition and then vote on their favorite to continue. Players then create a new word as a synonym of the definition, and finally a sentence using that word.
- Push The Button
- 4–10 Players
- Push The Button takes place on a spaceship, where one or more of the players have been assigned as an alien and the other players, as humans, must eject the aliens before a timer runs out. Each round, one player determines an activity on the ship (such as drawing or writing a response to a question) and selects a number of the other crew to participate. The assigned human players get one prompt, but the aliens get a different one that would likely cause some confusion. The results are shown, and players have the time to determine if any response seems suspicious. In later rounds, alien players have "hacks" they can use to either get the correct human prompt or sent the alien prompt instead to a human player. At any time before the timer runs down, a player can "push the button" and select one other player they believe is the alien. All other players then vote if they agree or not. Failing to agree returns the game to its normal state. Otherwise, the game reveals if the players were correct (continuing on if there are additional aliens) or incorrect, ending the game with the aliens ejecting all the humans.
Enjoy!
