Fun Family Games Everyone Will Love:
#1 - The Quiplash Series
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!
And yes, you read that right: while the game is for 3-8 players, it supports up to 10,000 active participants in the Audience, all of whom have the ability to affect the vote! More than 8 people at your party? Nobody has to sit out. Playing on a stream? Your viewers can join in and participate in the game.
You’ll know you’re playing Quiplash when you type something like “unicorn farts” on your phone, and it carries you to victory!
Quiplash is available as its own standalone game for under $10!

#1B - Quiplash 3
Quiplash 3 has the same classic Quiplash style with an all new final round - Thriplash! In Thriplash, the prompts ask players to enter three responses. That’s three times the chances to be funny!
Quiplash 3 now also has a moderation feature that allows responses to be seen prior to being displayed on screen. Additionally, a new filtering option allows profanity and hateful speech to be blocked before even reaching moderation.
Quiplash 3 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 7.
#2 - 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 has tons of fresh trivia, plus a boatload of new features: “Cookie’s VHS Vault” features clips from the craziest old movies we could find (under Cookie’s bed.) “Fibbage Fan Fact” stars real-life Fibbage fans hosting questions about crazy things that happened to them. The popular “Enough About You” mode returns, allowing you to play an entire game with questions about you and your friends. And the brand new “Final Fibbage” challenges players to write one lie that works for two entirely different questions.
For streamers, an audience of thousands can play along, guessing the truth and voting on lies to trip up the players. For the first time in Fibbage, the audience earns their own score and gets a ranked award for their performance at the end of the game. And you can maintain order on your stream with updated moderation tools, including the ability to kick troublesome players mid-game.
Fibbage 4 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 9.
#3 - 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 on PS4 for under $10.
#4 - Tee K.O.
In Tee K.O., players are on the clock to create drawings and write as many slogans as possible. Then, all the pictures and slogans are shuffled to other players at random. Whoever combines their drawings and slogans to create the best t-shirt wins, as designs are pitted against each other in head-to-head battles. The t-shirts with the highest votes in each round must survive the gauntlet to become the best. Tee… K.O. Get it?
Perhaps the most beloved part of Tee K.O. is the fact that you can make your stupid great creations a reality and purchase actual versions of your t-shirts. Just click the gallery button at the end of the game or view your past galleries at Jackbox.tv.
Tee K.O. is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 3 & The Jackbox Party Starter.
#5 - 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.
First, players answer some simple icebreaker questions. You can answer these any way you want (feel free to ignore the question itself!), as long as your answers are five words or more. The sentences you write are shuffled and sent to other players.
Now it’s time for the interview! You can use any word (or punctuation) from the sentences you have been given to answer two interview questions. Here’s a secret tip: you can ALSO use any word on your controller, including words from the question itself! Feeling stuck? You can SHUFFLE or SORT the words on your controller to get new inspiration, or press START FOR ME and the game will pick three random words to get you started.
Then, players go head-to-head, and everyone votes for their favorite answers. You get points for a winning answer, and the people that wrote the words you used, they also get points!
Round Two involves the same process, but this time players answer two hypothetical questions about office life. And then in Round Three, players finish some personal statements because M. Bubbles MAY have lost your resumes (spoiler alert: they did). At the end, the player with the most points wins the job!
Job Job is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 8.
There are tons of other games in the Jackbox catalogue that are sure to take your gatherings to the next level! You can get five unique and incredibly entertaining Jackbox Games for under $30 by purchasing a Party Pack! Learn more about how to play The Jackbox Party Pack 9 remotely HERE.
