The only thing worse than a boring party is when that one friend decides that NOW is the time to break out the board game they’ve never played before. Coming to the rescue of every party, in-person gathering, and late-night Discord session is The Jackbox Party Pack 12, Jackbox Games’ latest iteration of their iconic party franchise that draws 10s of millions of players every year.
With five brand-new games, you can flex your debate skills, art skills, ability to make ENTIRELY WORK APPROPRIATE cards, and more. The Party Pack franchise has been bringing accessible, family-friendly (depending on you / your family) games to players around the world for 12 years, and this newest entry is no exception. The only question is how many parties you’ll pop to life with the rip-roaring games included in The Jackbox Party Pack 12.
