Jackbox returns after having no session on the forums since October 2021!
After discussion, myself and Kingshadow decided on
Sunday 2nd April at 17:30 UTC to play (this will be 18:30 UK time).Please let us know in this topic if you plan on coming to the session, or if you can't because the time is inconvenient also let us know!
We'll be hosting the game on the LF forum discord server using the voice chat rooms (Pillar room/Brick room), voice chat is not essential but recommended for some of the Jackbox games for best results.
The game is brought to you using the discord screenshare feature, we host the game and no downloads or applications are necessary on your end. You just need to go to jackbox.tv to play the game.Link to the LF forum discord server if you have not already joined https://discord.gg/2MyfSfNThe sessions usually go on until a large amount of players have decided to leave the session, average session length has been around 5 hours, we can go on longer if there is significant demand to though.
Everyone is welcome, it's not just for people who have played before in these sessions!
Myself and Kingshadow will be hosting this session and we'll alternate between hosting throughout the session to cut down on waiting time between games.
We also have access to all 9 of the Party Packs between us.
What is Jackbox?Jackbox is a long running series of Party games which have been annually getting released every year since 2014 and Party Pack 9 is the latest installment which was released in Oct 2022.
Games vary from drawing, putting witty responses to questions, to strange general knowledge. A lot of games are different while some are sequels to previous games which are considered legendary.
The way the games are played are through a browser on a PC/Laptop or you can also play on your phone/tablet devices at
jackbox.tv . The way we play, you'll need discord open to view the game being played via screenshare but also you'll need a way to input the answers to the game via an internet browser.
While there is a limit on how many people can play at once, we haven't really had such massive turnouts that this has been a problem in the past, we can always play a game twice if the amount of players outweigh the capacity the game can take at the time.
