    The Jackbox Party Pack 6 follows the trend of a couple amazing games and a few really forgettable games. Overall the good games in this pack are really- really good.

Overall the good games in this pack are really- really good. Trivia Murder Party 2 is an overall improvement from the original which the original was quite a bundle of joy. The kill rooms are more unique, the questions are harder, and the race at the end was made just a tad more difficult. Is it better than the first? Yes, definitely what the 1st one was with sprinkles on top. Dictionarium is not that fun and II founder quite boring. It's a game about words, you make definitions, then you make new words based on the definitions. It's like a literature take on the game Telephone, but it just doesn't make it fun in the end. Joke Boat is a banger. It's like Mad Verse City mixed with a tiny bit of TKO and it's a blast every time. The captain, the prompts, the punchlines, it is all quite fun. It is dependent on how funny your participants are but even then this game had me laughing so hard my side was hurting. It's very simple but a sure is a fun time. Role Models is ok, it's unique but for my purpose, which is streaming to Twitch, it just wasn't that great for a streaming game. It's done best if you know the people you're playing with fairly well so if they're strangers- it'll just fall flat. I like some aspects of it and it got some conversation flowing but it's only ok not great. If there is one game to get this entire pack for, it's Push the Button. It's a take on Mafia, where there's a group of people and a handful of them are traitors. The traitors in this case are aliens on a spaceship, and the humans must find out who is actually an alien and send them out the airlock. It's rowdy, it's accusatory, and it's probably the most fun Jackbox game to ever exist. The captain changes each round and they decide which test some people he selects will do. You'll get simple drawing prompts like (A handshake), but the aliens will get a prompt that says (A fist bump). If one of the people clearly draws a fist bump instead of what the humans had to draw, then they're instantly suspicious. It's brought even more with the fact that the aliens can sabotage humans to get the wrong prompt. or even allow their co-aliens to get the correct prompt. Overall this pack is a blast in usual Jackbox form and a fine addition to the party pack line-up. If you like the others, don't even hesitate to get this one, it's a collection of amazing games especially if you are a live streamer.… Expand

    One of the best jackbox packs of all time
    Party pack 6 like every other jackbox party pack, is a package of 5 games best played with 4 or more players and this pack is an abosulte staple in your jackbox collection, featured here is the sequel to one of the best party pack games of all time, Trivia Murder Party 2 Where you and your friends try to be the last one standing and then you compete with their ghosts to be the soul survivor of this trivia game full of laughs and dumb fun mini games, then from great to bad, we have ditionarium, you create the definitions of a word, vote on the best answers. I can see its potential but I personally didn’t care to play more than once, then we have role models, which I loved, youre given a catergory, you then place all of your friends on the phrase that best matches their personality, and you can bet extra points on personality traits youre sure a majority will place a certain person in, you get points based off of how well you know the people playing, and with a group of close friends this game can be hilarious, speaking of hilarious, or at least tries to be,, joke boat, you and your friends are given topics and then you attempt to write a standup comedy bit about that topic,your friends then vote on the best punchline or joke, this game can have its moments, but like mosty jackbox games you need the right people to make it any fun.. and then finally we have push the button.. this game is sortve like among us, but youre all in the room together, there is an alien among you, and your goal is to figure out who that is by placing 2 people at a time into rooms and hve them complete tasks, all while the alien attempts to sabotage the other players to make it seem s though they are the alien, as the alien is given different tasks.. I love these types of game, but this is one that really is at its best with more players, and I found that 4 just doesn’t cut it here..
    All in all,Party Pack 6is one of my favorites and is a must have..
    I give the Jackbox Party Pack 6
    an 8.5/10    … Expand

    Between Push the Button, Joke Boat, Trivia Murder Party 2, and Role Models, The Jackbox Party Pack 6 is quite possibly the most well-rounded collection of mini-games that we've seen in a Jackbox Party Pack game.

    I think this year’s addition to the Jackbox series is a good one and it comes with a great variety of games. It’s not overloaded with trivia or drawing games and I think it’s a great overall balance that all of your friends will enjoy playing even if they aren’t gamers. Most of these games are best when played with a larger group that know each other pretty well, as games like Push the Button and Role Models are really dependent on how well you know your friends. The things that make us come back to the Jackbox games are the humor and accessibility. Every game will make you laugh and they are super easy to get your group playing with their phones.

    The Jackbox Party Pack 6 on Xbox One is another solid compilation of games guaranteed to make you laugh. You’ll struggle to enjoy the full extent of what this bundle has to offer without getting your mates round, however if you do you’ll struggle to find a more entertaining way to spend an evening.
