Plan your next game night! Jackbox Games is back with 5 hilarious new party games including Drawful Animate, Job Job, The Poll Mine, Weapons Drawn, and The Wheel of Enormous Proportions.
In Drawful Animate, players create a two-frame animation based on the prompt they receive. This adds a new layer of creativity, as players must consider how to convey an action or concept across the two frames. Some reviewers noted that certain prompts lend themselves well to animation, while others could be adequately depicted in a single frame. Nonetheless, the new animation element adds a fresh twist to the classic Drawful drawing and guessing format.
The Wheel of Enormous Proportions challenges players to select the most correct answers to multiple-choice trivia questions. Players then earn slices of a large, spinning wheel based on their performance. At the end, the wheel spins, and the player whose slice lands on the wheel earns a significant number of points. Reviews suggest this game relies more heavily on luck due to the wheel mechanic, which some players enjoy for its randomness, while others prefer a more skill-based trivia experience.
In Job Job, players answer job interview questions using a pool of words and phrases submitted by other players. This unique word salad effect leads to hilarious and absurd responses, with reviewers praising the game's creativity in repurposing existing words and phrases.
The Poll Mine is a survey-based game where players must rank their answers to prompts, then try to guess the overall group's rankings. This introduces an element of knowing your friends' preferences and priorities, with reviewers indicating that the game works best with larger groups, as the team-based guessing adds an engaging layer of social deduction.
Weapons Drawn tasks players with taking on the roles of both murderers and detectives. Players must draw a weapon based on a prompt, hiding a letter from their name within the drawing. They then try to deduce the identities of the other "murderers" based on the weapon drawings. Reviews suggest the game has a complex set of rules and mechanics, but can be highly entertaining when the group fully grasps the gameplay loop.
