    Jackbox Party Pack 1 & 2 each contain their own unique set of games for hours of hilarity with your friends, and having this available on the go with the Switch makes it all the sweeter. Each pack contains a wide variety of games such as the first containing You Don’t Know Jack and Drawful and the second containing Fibbage 2 and Quiplash XL. Solo players beware, this game is primarily for parties.

    Despite the requirement to have an Internet connection to experience 4 of the 5 games, The Jackbox Party Pack 2 is just as strong as its prequel. The same zany presentation and innovative use of smart devices, it's another ideal party starter. Which set you choose (if you only choose one) will likely come down to whether you prefer trivia, improvisation or cooperative-based games, but overall this second pack is a solid set that will provide a lot of laughs and collective fun.

    If you only have the money for one of the Jackbox Party Packs, go for this one. There's fun to be had in short bursts if you can gather some friends together. However, other than Bomb Corp, there’s nothing here that you’d want to sit around playing for hours. It’s great fun in the smallest of blasts, but like most in the genre, the more people you have who are able to take part, it’s likely that you’ll have more fun with the games.

    Fibbage 2: Just play the newer one.
    Bidiots: There's better drawings games than this. This one's a little too complex.
    Bomb Corp: Eh.    Fibbage 2: Just play the newer one.
    Bidiots: There's better drawings games than this. This one's a little too complex.
    Bomb Corp: Eh.
    Earwax: Fart = funny?
    Quiplash XL: Just play the newer one.

    Verdict: Basically the equivalent to a sports game. Just buy the newer ones, or cheap out and get the older version if you REALLY want.    … Expand
