Meet Jackbox Games: The Party Games Everyone Can Play

Hi there! We’re Jackbox Games! We’re the folks behind the party games you might have heard of like Quiplash, Drawful, Fibbage, and You Don’t Know Jack. Our games turn your phone into a controller and your friends into your competition. 

Maybe you’ve never played our games before. Or maybe you played years ago when everyone was stuck inside and hanging out on Zoom. Either way, we still offer a variety of unique and hilarious party games. Jackbox just might be what you need for your next party. Here are some common questions we get asked from the Jackbox-curious. 

How do I choose a Jackbox game that’s right for me?

Browsing our game library is easy. You can head to https://www.jackboxgames.com/games to look at all our titles and learn about each game. You can also sort games by player count, which Party Pack to find them in, and by title. 

Which Jackbox game should I start with?

Some first time Jackbox players begin with The Jackbox Party Starter. It comes with three games - Quiplash 3, Tee K.O. and Trivia Murder Party 2. Quiplash 3 is a comedic prompt and response game where players decide which answer they like the best. Tee K.O. is a t-shirt design game where players battle it out to design the best t-shirts and slogans. And Trivia Murder Party 2 is a horror-themed trivia game where you have to answer questions and play mini-games to escape a serial killer. These three games will give you a taste of what Jackbox has to offer. Kind of like a sampler box of truffles, except the games won’t melt. 

Do I have to play each game to understand what’s going on?

You can play any game or Party Pack without having to play the others! Each game we offer stands on its own. Jackbox games are easy to understand with minimal instructions, so you and your friends can get right into them. There are some surprise easter eggs and references in certain games, so the more you play, the more you’ll catch on to the Jackbox universe.

What do I need to play Jackbox at home? 

To start, one person in your party needs to own your Jackbox game or party pack of choice. You can play Jackbox on a computer, supported gaming console, or streaming device. One person hosts the game and displays it on their TV (or shared screen if playing virtually). Players can join from any device with a web browser: including phones, tablets, and computers. Just enter the room code, and you’re ready to play! Need some further info on setup? You can head to https://www.jackboxgames.com/how-to-play to learn more. 

What are the best occasions to play Jackbox? 

Jackbox is the ultimate activity for game nights and parties. It’s a super fun idea at family holiday gatherings, work events, and game nights. Streamers also love it, as it gives an interactive element with their audiences. Plus many of the games offer family-friendly/workplace-friendly filters if you’d like. Your coworkers don’t have to know how raunchy you get at your personal game nights. 

Your party game era starts now, and we can’t wait to be a part of it!
