Best Drinking Games for Holiday Parties:
#1 - Tee K.O. 2
In Tee K.O. 2, a new cast of characters engage in the timeless art of fashion battle. Players create drawings and slogans – the weirder, the better – then mix a drawing and slogan to forge a clothing item never before seen.
BATTLE TIME! Everyone’s fresh new garments go head-to-head in the battle arena. Vote for your favorite… and watch the competition get knocked senseless.
Players can switch things up in later rounds by retooling drawings to increase their odds in battle… leading to a frantic button-mashing final round, where one garment emerges victorious and the loser literally goes down in flames.
DID WE MENTION:
New design options to craft the perfect warrior! New shirt and drawing colors, new drawing tools, new slogan styles, and a choice of shirt, hoodie or tank top for every design.
Love it? WEAR IT! Every new design in the game available in real life in multiple styles, to wear with reckless abandon and remind the world you’re not kidding around.
Tee K.O. 2 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 10.
#2 - Trivia Murder Party 2
The game show-loving serial killer from Trivia Murder Party is back, with more trivia and dastardly new mini-games. Can you and your friends survive a night in the Murder Hotel? Who will win? Who will you betray? When was the last time anyone cleaned these rooms? Trivia Murder Party 2 is bigger, funnier and weirder than before. Do you dare?
Like the first Trivia Murder Party, players answer trivia questions and answering incorrectly will send you to the Killing Floor, to play mini-games that can kill. New mini-games include avoiding swords stabbed into a magician’s box, tattooing the killer’s back and most terrifying of all… using a rotary phone!
Trivia Murder Party 2 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 6 & The Jackbox Party Starter.
#3 - Quiplash 3
In Quiplash, there are no rules or correct answers. You just say whatever you want! Your answer will be pitted against another player’s answer in a head-to-head battle. Other players – and even an audience of up to 10,000 people – then vote on their favorite answer. It’s that simple!
You’ll know you’re playing Quiplash when you type something like “unicorn farts” on your phone, and it carries you to victory!
Quiplash 3 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 7 & The Jackbox Party Starter.
#4 - Fibbage 4
The lying game for lying liars is back! Everyone’s favorite trivia host, Cookie Masterson, returns with Fibbage 4, the biggest entry yet in the long-running irreverent bluffing game series. In Fibbage, you get an unbelievable true fact with a key word or phrase blanked out. Then you make up a lie that fits the blank to fool your fellow players. Earn points by spotting the truth and tricking your gullible friends with your lies.
Fibbage 4 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 9.
#5 - Drawful 2
In Drawful 2, each player receives a weird and unique prompt that they must try to draw on their mobile device (without the aid of an eraser). After each “artist” presents their work, everyone else anonymously submits a title that could fit this bizarre drawing. Your goal is to somehow find the correct prompt while fooling other players into selecting your decoy answer. Bonus points are awarded to those who submitted decoys that are especially clever or dumb… it’s usually the dumb ones.
Drawful 2 is available as its own standalone game for under $10.
#6 - Dodo Re Mi
Dodo Re Mi is a musical game where you play as these incredible birds, select songs and instruments to play, and then, listen to a playback of your performance and witness your awesome success (or just as awesome utter failure).
Here are some exciting features: Your device is your instrument. As you play, you will hear the music your instrument is playing coming out of your controller! There is a sync up moment before playing a song to make sure the game is aligned with your controller. So the game is built to play in the room together or over streaming! (Audio latency, get out of here!) You determine how many songs you want to play in a game! Whether you are a one-hit wonder or playing a festival length playlist, end the game when you want. Players can join or drop out in between songs! The song list has some locked content that you open by playing! But if that’s not your thing, there’s a toggle in the settings that lets you unlock everything. The song list includes reimagined classics, original songs, and Jackbox favorites. And because each song contains multiple beatmaps to play, there are over 200 beatmaps! Each song contains a selection of instruments that have different beatmaps, ranging in difficulty and covering different musical parts! There are over 100 instruments to play, including Constant Screaming and Nature’s Bugle! What’s a beatmap? The thing on your device that you tap with your fingers to make that sweet, sweet music.
Birds of a feather can rock together in Dodo Re Mi!
Dodo Re Mi is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 10.
#7 - Job Job
Welcome to Job Job, a game where you use other people’s words to answer interview questions! Funny and unique answers get votes, and the player with the most points in the end SCORES THE JOB (JOB)! M. Bubbles, the bubbly boss (and sentient water cooler), is here to guide you through a revolutionary job interview experience.
Job Job is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 8.
#8 - Champ'd Up
Enter the Scrawliseum, where player-created characters fight over unusual titles. Who will be crowned the Champion of Cowards? The player who sees the prompt or their challenger who only sees their competition? Heavy favorites are pitted against underdogs to create hilarious, high-octane matches.
In Champ’d Up, players battle for two rounds to see who will win the vote as the GOAT. In the first half, players are tasked to draw and name two types of characters: a champion and a challenger. First, they create a champion character based on the prompt they receive, like “The Champion of Cute.” Then, that character (but not the prompt) gets sent to another player who has to discern what the contest/prompt is, and create what they hope is a worthy challenger. When the action starts, favorites are pitted against underdogs and mayhem ensues.
Champ'd Up is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 7.
#9 - Mad Verse City
Channel your inner MC as a rap-battling robot in MAD VERSE CITY! Giant robots have invaded, and they want one thing: to set the city ablaze with their best verses. Thankfully, all citizens of Mad Verse City are out of town, except for a thirsty and rambunctious crowd and our esteemed hosts, Chicago legend Shadow Master MC and his sidekick, DJ Raych. They’re going to do their best to referee this competition, along with your help.
Mad Verse City is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 5.
#10 - Monster Seeking Monster
At the end of the day, we’re all just monsters trying to find love. It’s about getting to know each other and figuring out exactly what kind of monster your partner is in order to determine if you’ll survive the relationship, right? There’s no better party game to live this truth than Monster Seeking Monster.
Monster Seeking Monster is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 4.
