Get ready to party withĀ Jackbox Party Pack 9

A staple at any good party, theĀ Jackbox games have become something of a ubiquity for people who love a good group game at a get-together. They’re well-designed, easy to understand, and anyone can partake as long as they have a phone or computer to use. TheĀ Jackbox model is pretty genius, and it’s one of those series I’m always going to check out every time they have a new release.

That’s why I’m super excited to see the trailer drop for their newest release,Ā Jackbox Party Pack 9. It’s yet another excuse to have a bunch of friends over and sit down to check out the new games. There are four completely new games in this pack, as well as the return of a revamped favorite:

  • Quixort, a co-op trivia sorting game where players will have to sort a series of blocks in order thanks to the help of some little robots.
  • Junktopia, a storytelling game where players are turned into frogs by an evil wizard, and must earn their way back into the wizardā€™s good graces by giving random objects amusing backstories to increase their values.
  • Roomerang, a role-playing game where players take on the role of gameshow contestants and must answer prompts and avoid elimination.
  • Nonsensory, a laid-back game where players write, draw, and try to guess the silly things that their friends wrote and drew.
  • And of course Fibbage 4, the return of a classic where players must bluff and get other players to believe their false answers.

The new trailer that dropped today gives a nice, quick overview of what each game entails if you’re looking for a summary. There are also some adorable pugs involved, which I think is only due to their being adorable. Whatever, I’m not complaining.

Jackbox Party Pack 9 will be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam, with an announcement of the release date coming soon.
