It’s a random roulette type of affair and is a way for players to earn points. Between question rounds, you’ll spin a wheel to earn points. The questions are fine but the ‘wheel’ aspects let it down a little. This one is a trivia game that plays like a psychedelic version of Trivial Pursuit. Obviously, this one is the highlight of the pack just as the drawing ones in previous packs have been (we’re thinking Civic Doodle and Tee K.O.) and we’re of the opinion that there should be a drawing game in every pack. Obviously, this mode really relies on the people playing and if you’ve got a gang of mates with a similar sense of humour, this one will keep you going all night.

It’s not a huge update but it does everything we love about Drawful and the additional animation element makes things a bit funnier too. The only difference with this one is that you now get to draw two frames which will repeat like a GIF. The third Drawful game in the series, this one keeps the initial concept where players have to draw something unusual and provide descriptions of other players’ drawings. Usually those are best as they put the humour in the hands of the players, which usually gives the best results and is why Drawful remains a favourite even though it goes back to the first Party Pack game. There are five on offer and it’s easier to go through them game by game but, as expected, you’ve got a mix of quiz games (which hark back to their previous You Don’t Know Jack series) and ones where you get to draw or create things. It also means that players don’t have to be co-located, making a Jackbox party a lot more accessible during these COVID times.Īs ever, this is a collection of mini-games. This of course means that you can have way more players and you can even get an audience going via Twitch or YouTube.


Instead, one player hosts (on their PS4) and then they and everyone else plays on a mobile device, via the website. There won’t be four of you on DualShocks, controlling the action.

If you don’t know the basic concept behind these games, they aren’t really traditional party games. As ever, the Chicago natives Jackbox Games are behind this latest release in a series that has now seen eight main series releases since 2014, as well as a handful of standalone efforts too. We’ve said it before but the Jackbox games are easily the best party games out there (at least until Hidden in Plain Sight gets ported to modern consoles) and here at PlayStation Country, it’s been a mainstay of all of our online and in-person meet ups.
