    The Jackbox Party Pack 7 is a great title highly recommended on Nintendo Switch. It offers another pack of Jackbox Games with fun minigames that you won't be able to stop playing with your friends.

    If you haven’t enjoyed previous Jackbox volumes, this one might win you back. It leaves most of the humour up to you and presents a well-rounded sampling of tasks. Just be sure you can enjoy the party safely.

    I thought this was a pretty solid Jackbox pack, if not one of my favorites. There were some issues with the Switch edition that I hope will be cleared up soon -- not just with Champ’d Up, but it also took quite a while for some of the other games to connect. Otherwise this was a really solid mix of games, with much more thought put into the “personality” of each game (always love a good theme song).

    The Jackbox Party Pack 7 might not be the best entry I’ve played, but it’s still a great collection of fun, innovative party games. The degree of customization and accessibility is fantastic. Sure, some technical issues might be plaguing the Switch version right now, but even with some speed bumps, the likes of Quiplash 3, The Devil and the Details, and Champ’d Up are likely to become new game night staples. Hopefully they won’t have to be on Discord and Zoom for the rest of time.

    Jackbox Party Pack 7 is another solid mix of games to through into rotation for your next social gathering. Quiplash 3 and Blather ‘Round are quick and simple options that anyone can pick up, and The Devil and the Details along with Talking Points are more complex games with plenty of replay value. Champ’d Up fails to live up to previous entertaining drawing games and has a pretty frustrating bug preventing full drawings from showing up properly. Overall, it’s a good collection of games that will please fans of the series, but I’m hoping that we soon get an option to export every pack into one collection for the ultimate party pack.

    The Jackbox Party Pack 7 will be entertaining to those who have played the other entries in the series to death, but it doesn't live up to the pedigree of the earlier games.

    After seven entries, it's clear the Jackbox team knows how to make a fun set of party games. Jackbox 7 keeps it up with an instant classic in Blather 'Round, another solid take on Quiplash, a zany time with Devils and the Details, the unfortunately bugged Champ'd Up, and Talking Points, a game that's really hurt by the current world circumstances. I can't blame Jackbox Games for the pandemic, but two of these games do take a hit from being played over Discord. And the bugs may be a side effect of at-home development, but I can't say for sure. All I can say is Champ'd Up has so much potential and is destined for Twitch fame once its bugs are flattened. So yes, Jackbox 7 is worth buying. But maybe wait for an eventual sale. And for this dumb pandemic to be over.

    My favorite party game, hands down. I am fairly new to the series which means that this is my first Jackbox Party Pack. All 5 games are fun,My favorite party game, hands down. I am fairly new to the series which means that this is my first Jackbox Party Pack. All 5 games are fun, intuitive, and easy to learn. Even my 40 year old parents love it. We play whenever we can, and we always have a blast. Literally anybody can play these games. The way they use your phone as a controller is very creative. You won’t need to buy extra controllers to play with more people, because you already have them! I’ve also had my fair share of watching streams and being in the audience, and it’s a great time. I don’t know what else to write, so I will just rank the games with no context:
    1. Quiplash 3
    2. Talking Points
    3. Champ’d Up
    4. Blather ‘Round
    5. The Devils and the Details
    Hope my list didn’t make you mad. All the games are fantastic, but this is just how much I enjoyed them. Thanks for tuning in!    … Expand

    Quiplash 3 is still outstanding, The Devils and The Details is great for an in-person, chaotic time, Champ'd Up is a good upgrade of Tee-KO (an already great game), Talking Points is absolutely hilarious, and Blather 'Round is a good old fun time.
    This, and Party Pack 3, are definitely the best Jackbox games, and are must-plays for groups of friends and family.    … Expand

    We’ve just bought and played through the whole pack tonight, and for my money, this is the best pack yet. These games are all great, and unlike other packs, there are no duds.

    You can see shadows of previous games in all of the new titles, but with improvements. There is Quiplash 3 which is, well Quiplash - a great game. Talking Points is a little like Patently Stupid but with more to get your teeth into, and funnier for it. Champ'd up is a little like Tee KO but more polished. Blather Round feels a little like Dictionarium but better, and Devils in the detail is something a bit new. It's a collaboration game with an aesthetic a little like Monster Seeking Monster. It's the perfect game to get the family shouting at each other. That's what happened in our house anyway!    … Expand

    More fun to be had
    The Jackbox Party Pack 7 like everyother party pack is a 5 pack of party games that ar most fun with 4 or more players, and instead of controllers you use your phone, and party pack 7 definitely makes some improvements..
    Included are quiplash 3 which is now my favorite version of quiplash, here you fill in the blanks anonymously and everyone else playing picks their favorite, and a las you can pick who your little character is as you play instead of random choice, something ive been wanting jackbox to do from the start, next is the devils and the details, this is a party game that requires a lot of communication, something I consider tobe the spiritual successor to bomb corp, you’re a family doing chores on your screen for points, a lot of those chores requiring the assistance of others around you… and much like the game being about chores, this game is a chore to play… It can be fun for like 2 rounds, but that’s about it… then we have one of my favorite jackbox games, champd upwher youre giving a champion description to draw, and then everyone votes on the best champaion based on the given title, jackbox is usually at its best when it allows you to get creative, and champd upo is no exception… then we haveprobably one of the worst games in jabox history.. talking points, you give a speech while your random partner gives you random slide to talk over while everyone reacts to you, its awful, don’t understand how it works, ot how you ultimately win, but its there.. and the last game included is blather ‘round, a game that’s surely to be a staple in the jacbox family, here you choose a persona place or thing, an then slowly you get more words to give clues, while everyone else tries to be the first to guess, you can also use their wrong guesses to give hints to everyone earning that player points as well.. this game can be frustrating when you have no way to make sense of your words, but it’s a fun frustrating..
    Overall Jackbox Party Pack 7 I pretty solid and with 3 out of 5 great games in this collection, its one worth adding to your jackbox pile
    I give The Jackbox Party Pack 7
