Trivia enthusiasts will love these fun games:
#1 - Trivia Murder Party 2
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!
Still on the run from the police after the events of the first Trivia Murder Party, the serial killer host has moved into the Murder Hotel where he grew up. In the past his family killed unsuspecting guests at their hotel, but now the Host is using the hotel to run his bizarre game show… where he kills unsuspecting guests.
Trivia Murder Party 2 is packed full of new surprises. Can you finish the game with a bomb strapped to your body? What would you do if you could haunt one of the other players? Would it be weird if the killer thought you were his mother?
Check in to the Murder Hotel to find out.
Trivia Murder Party 2 is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 6 and The Jackbox Party Starter.
#2 - Timejinx
In Timejinx you play the role of a time traveler who meets up with their ragtag group of friends for trivia night at the residence of our acerbic host, Jerri Rig.
In each round you are tasked with traveling to certain years when important, or not so important, events took place. Your goal is to land as close to the correct year as possible; the farther you’re off on the timeline, the higher your score gets. And in this game, high scores are bad!
Fortunately, there are a series of side missions you’ll go on that can help reduce your score. These include:
Blending into random parties from different decades Navigating your way through a time loop Saving a real historical figure from their evil imposter Identifying locations in an alternate timeline Fixing the absurd butterfly effect you’ve caused
The game ends with one final task that sends you on a high-stakes mission into the distant future!
Can you handle the year pressure?
Timejinx is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 10.
#3 - Quixort
Quixort is a game that simply asks you to arrange the multiple answers to a singular trivia question into their proper order. And even better, the answers are contained in blocks that fall from the top and are guided by adorable, hard-working robots. So, you not only get the satisfaction of putting things in order but also the anxiety caused by an unrelenting industrial process that JUST KEEPS SPITTING OUT BLOCKS! Fun, right? You and your friends divide into teams and see who can do the best job sorting the answers to something like “The Order of Planets In Our Solar System” or “Celebrity Heights From Shortest to Tallest.”
Okay, maybe you’re not a team player and would like to go it alone. Great! There’s also Quixort Forever, a mode that lets you play by yourself (or with other players on the same team) to see how long you can answer questions until your wrong answers cause you to top out.
Additionally, we added some cool controller features such as:
- A real-time map on your phone to show your block position in case you’re experiencing lag from playing on a stream
- An audience function that lets you sort along at home and see how your score compares to the players’
Quixort is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 9.
#4 - The Wheel of Enormous Proportions
Who is the Wheel of Enormous Proportions? An ageless deity? An ancient oracle? A massive being that craves the company of tiny humans for trivia and casino-esque hijinks? The answer is yes!
In the beginning… you are invited by the omniscient Wheel to ask any question that gnaws at your soul, anything at all. No question is beyond the Wheel’s infinite wisdom to answer. But all players must survive a contest of trivia and wheel-spinning first. The Wheel only bestows its knowledge on the game’s champion.
Once assembled on the Wheel’s sacred summit in the sky, players are challenged with an enlightened brand of trivia. Every trivia round is followed by a round of wheel-spinning.
If the Wheel stops on a slice with your name on it, you move onto (CUE angelic choral music) The Wisdom Wheel. This is it, the proverbial moment of truth. Remember that burning question you asked at the start? As winner of the game, you’ll have it answered with one final twirl of the Wheel. Will it be… pepperoni, anchovies, or something completely unexpected?
Only the Wheel knows for sure.
The Wheel of Enormous Proportions is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 8.
#5 - You Don't Know Jack: Full Stream
This time around, the game (and Cookie) have been acquired by the friendly corporate overlords at Binjpipe, your premiere media streaming service. Binjpipe’s consumer-pleasing algorithms have led to tons of brand new features like “Data Mining” questions, “Player’s Choice,” and brand new Screws that mess with your opponents’ devices when they’re trying to answer the question.
YOU DON’T KNOW JACK: Full Stream supports single player gameplay and groups as large as eight. Additional audience members can play along, and how well they do on a question determines how much bonus cash it’s worth to the players.
Trivia! Fart sounds! Eight players! Whatever Binjpipe is! Stop reading and go play the game!
You Don't Know Jack: Full Stream is available in The Jackbox Party Pack 5.
Other games among the Jackbox catalogue include aspects of trivia along with a variety of other fun concepts. You can get five unique and incredibly entertaining Jackbox Games for under $30 by purchasing a Party Pack!
