Great fun games for when you have people over, I recommend Fibbage, so many "ah, you bastard!" moments followed by much laughter. No need for controllers, everyone simply uses their smartphone, and you can even use tablets, laptops, whatever to play. This is the PC version so I'd recommend installing it to a laptop then putting it on the lounge room TV via HDMI out. Games are also on consoles but don't go on sale as often.
Mod Edit: Please mention the original currency ($US).
Scrap that, Drawful 2 is out now (just got an email), and 10% off for this first week:

Not a big enough deal to post it, I think.
You got me there at jackbox
Good games, got them cheap on psn a while a go, very fun to play with your partner or friends
Totally worth it. Really a great combo. Great for parties
Is it a single code? :/ Already have the first game.
Nah dual codes, you can get the second one alone for US8.74 though, discount of 65%. The bundle is 75% off but that's still good value.

So, does everyone share the same mouse or???
No, you use your smartphone via a web app.

bro do u even read the post
If you can't be bothered learning what jackbox is, you don't deserve to know what jackbox is.
Just in case anyone is thinking about this with kids, I did some research.
The games are rated Teen by the ESRB - http://www.esrb.org/ratings/ratings_guide.aspx
The Jackbox 1 does not have a family filter
The Jackbox 2 does have a family filter which omits naughty stuff apparently.
Looking at a lot of the comments online most of the content is only naughty if participants choose it to be.
I am going to pick it up to play with family which includes a 8 and 13 year old. Probably nothing they haven't already been exposed to.
Play it with my family all the time, wide range of ages. The game is as age appropriate as the players make it, and the family filter does work well to block some of the more risque prompts.
Amazing game - great value at this price for both!
Cheers. Good to know. Looks like fun. Can't wait to give it a crack tonight.

Fibbage & Drawful are the best games from JBPP 1 - you'll get endless hours out of Drawful (a bit like Pictionary), and once you run out of Fibbage questions you can move on to Fibbage 2.
Quiplash from JBPP 2 is a blast with the right group of people, and Bidiots is quite a good game of strategy, a bit different to the rest.
Just make sure you have a good (ie: stable) internet connection, nothing worse than game dropping out halfway.
quiplash is so good
Fibbage+quiplash are awesome
I so wish that the devs would release a DRM Free version of it :(
Yeah these are great fun, just wish there were more 8 player games.
I already have the XB1 party pack. I didn't know there was another. Any deals on just JBPP2? Are codes separate? I'll pay $11 if someone wants to split. 7.8/11.
Is this a single install or can I install this to my media pc in the living room and my laptop?
Steam Codes
Drawful is awesome. Got it on Xbox 1. Great fun on the big screen after a few drinks playing with friends.
:)
Bought this the other day and I must say, it's a fantastic set of games! I've had so much fun already!
Checked today and it is still valid.
It's even cheaper now at AU$18.18, but if you enter the code SAVE5, it goes down even further to AU$17.28 ($17.46 on 28Degrees Mastercard).

I love these games and play them all the time with friends.
Drawful 2 is out this week too, apparently!
