I still don't know Jack, it's a solid pack though! You Don't Know Jack is a faithful version of YDKJ for a Party Pack (I still liked 2015 being adapted from YDKJ 2011 for Pack 1 , but for those reading this , this is You Don't Know Jack adapted as a Party Pack game. ) Split The Room is Jackbox's take of Twilight Zone- which admittedly, I love as a show originally, but it's a good game- as long as you actually split the room, or not.. sometimes it's fun to just not. Mad Verse City is okay, a bit weaker than the other games above, but it's somewhat like drawful where , at least from my experiences, the fun is from the lack of ability to rap at times, or maybe I just suck at the game. It's a decent game to spice things up. Zeeple Dome? Zeeple Dome. It's a good game, it's a TERRIBLE Jackbox game. So if in some universe you could play this without going to Jackbox.tv- I'd pay them $60 , but for this... I'd suggest not. Patently Stupid is insanely good- try to pitch ideas and see what sticks: the game. One other note, easter eggs are crazy in this pack in particular- if you're one of those people who like the YDKJ name easter eggs, they are here. If you wonder if the phone numbers work here- they do. That's worth a lot for some people, and i'm one of those people. Overall, solid pack for the price.

Gene won due to the game cheating, so me and my friends ran a train on his wife. Then proceeded to skin gene alive. 10/10 would run a train on his wife again. (Great game all jokes aside)

patently stupid and mad verse are goated but i've never seen anyone genuinely play the other three.

Mad Verse City is the only game worth your time in this one, and it really depends on your players whether you're having a good time.

I wish Jackbox was still making YDKJ games regularly. Say what you want about it, but I think it was funny, and the trivia was interesting. Split the Room and Mad Verse City are both sleeper hits. Zeeple Dome is just a waste of time, I'm sorry to say. And Patently Stupid rivals Quiplash and Fibbage in terms of hilarity and fun. Overall, really liked this pack.
