Which means that when you’re asked “How do you deal with rude people?” you might have to answer using someone else’s answer to the prompt “Tell me about an amazing meal you cooked recently” leaving you with “I like to roast a whole chicken with lots of butter, baby” as your entire word pool, unless you can cleverly pick and choose from that complete nonsequitur of an answer and spin it into a good answer (or a really funny one.) Since you have to use at least 5 words, this can get pretty tricky, even if you are trying to be absurd. Only in this case, the answers to those stupid icebreaker questions will become the resources for you to use when answering interview questions. It perfectly skewers “corporate” life down to the Microsoft Publisher clipart and stupid icebreakers. In Job Job, one of The Jackbox Party Pack 8’s brand new games, you’re a jobseeker who’s looking for gainful employment and going on a job interview. It’s a lot like its previous incarnations, really, but the animation does add a fun twist. Players guess what the actual prompt was from a selection of answers that includes other players’ guesses at what the drawing is. Drawful Animate! takes the basic gameplay you’re used to from Drawful and adds animation. It’s popular for a reason, and, to me at least, seems like it’s borne out of a marriage of Drawful and last year’s fantastic Champ’d Up which was an unholy mix of Smash Bros, Pictionary and, well…it had its own twists. It’s a lot like a game of Pictionary gone slightly raunchy and particularly wacky. Its first iteration featured in the OG Jackbox Party Pack and it even spawned a rare stand-alone sequel, Drawful 2, back in 2016. To begin with, let’s look at Drawful Animate! Drawful represents a flagship series for the Jackbox Party Packs. There’s returning classic reimagined, Drawful Animate!, Job Job, The Poll Mine, Weapons Drawn, and The Wheel of Enormous Proportions. The Jackbox Party Pack 8 consists of five games. But I am sure that even if it competes with its former self and loses, The Jackbox Party Pack 8 is still a winner. So, did we reach new heights with 8? I’m not sure. If I remember correctly, we thought it was the best party pack yet, in fact. It was pitch perfect, bringing fantastic new games that were easy to learn and chaotic and fun in large groups and perfecting some old standbys. Last year, we got our hands on The Jackbox Party Pack 7 and had an absolute blast with it. They’re also full of the sarcastic Chicago brand of humor we’ve been loving them for since well back in the You Don’t Know Jack days. Games are generally simple and fun, and can be played using a cell phone with very little need for technical knowledge of any kind. These games generally consist of a few new titles and a few that have been improved upon since the last iteration in some way or another. Most of the time, Jackbox Party Packs are full of five-ish games for (ideally) at least 3 or 4 players and can easily host an audience of epic proportions. And we, the Chicago proud and trivia/game show game loving, are here for it every time. And, with the changing of seasons comes new Jackbox Party Packs, at least for the last good long while. All that to say that Jackbox Games has a formula, and it works pretty well for them. It’s a legacy that begins with Jellyvision and ends with basically the most popular party game franchise in video game history if you don’t count the one they did before that, which, you know, was also one of the most popular party games in video game history. And Chicago is home to some truly great nerdy things. Note: The games included in this pack are in English only.We’ve got a lot of good things going here, especially when it comes to being a nerd. No big mess of controllers needed! You’re gonna need more than one party for this.
