This game is a quiz in nature, and the basic gimmick is this: a question will appear on screen, and your job is to come up with a phony answer that sounds like it could be real. It also implies there's a sequel, but since it's not in the pack, we'll not worry about that. Fibbage 2Īs the title implies, Fibbage 2 is all about lying to your friends. Without further ado, let's look at the games. It's also a huge plus being able to use your phone as a neo- Buzz controller at no extra cost, so this is a huge win across the board. The clever part of this is that using your phone grants a bit of privacy to you, as other players won't be able to see your answers to the games' questions, because you can keep your phone hidden from sight. Handily, and as is becoming a trend in modern gaming, you're supposed to use your mobile phone as a controller, either by connecting to the website and inputting a game-specific code, or using the app, provided on iOS and Android marketplaces. With the exception of Bomb Corp, the Party Pack games support up to eight players, and having eight bodies crowd around a keyboard would be chaos and lunacy. Accompanied with my new kidnapped friends, I'll be going through each of them, all of which will be getting an unofficial score out of 10 before the final “official” score for the whole game.īefore we look at each game in depth, special consideration has to be paid to the ingenious controls scheme. These games include Fibbage 2, Bidiots, Earwax, Quiplash XL, and, last but not least, Bomb Corp. Since then, the Jackbox team have diversified, and it's their other projects that make up the bones of their second Party Pack. If the name “Jackbox” sounds vaguely familiar to you, they're the devs behind the wonderful You Don't Know Jack! comedy/trivia series that was huge in the late 90s, but tapered off through the Bush years before resurfacing on mobile platforms in 2011. (a bit of a hefty price, but we are getting more than one game here) With that being said, let's get ready to party like it's £18.99. Don't worry they'll be returned safely, unless they beat me, then they're taking a trip to the glue factory. So, I did the smart, sensible thing, and kidnapped some people off the street so they could play Jackbox's new Party Pack with me. Before you write an angry email, stop, I had the same problem, being tasked to review this set of games aimed at groups of people, and nobody to play them with. Party game collections don't tend to sell well with hardcore gamers due to them having no friends. Reviews // 4th Dec 2015 - 7 years ago // By Ben McCurry The Jackbox Party Pack 2 Review
