Just Kate Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 I’ve heard several people talking about jackbox TV games and it looks like something my family might like, but for the life of me, I just don’t understand how to get started. can someone explain? Our main tv has both a Roku and an old PlayStation 3. We do have another tv with an Xbox, but it is in the basement and I’d rather not play there. Each family member has an iPhone. How do we purchase a game? How doe we all play? Any family favorites? Kids are 16 yo boy and 12 yo girl. Girl isn’t much of a gamer. Quote

When we get together with my sister's family we love a jackbox TV game Quiplash. I've been thinking of getting our own subscription so we can do it at home during this. You need one license and everyone playing needs their own device. Log in with the subscription of the game and it will give you a web address/code for everyone else to log in on their devices. Everyone plays on their individual devices, putting in their answers and it waits for everyone to answer/time to run out before going on. It's quite fun. Quote
sassenach Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 We’ve been playing a ton of Jackbox tv. My husband bought a 3-pack of games. Unfortunately, I don’t think I will be much help in the technical aspects. He starts the game from the laptop and projects it into our tv using Apple TV. We all access it by logging on with our phones and using the 4-letter code that the game gives us when we launch a new round. Quiplash is our fav but it can get a little saucy. The numbers game is fun, too. 1 Quote
KungFuPanda Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 My kids set it up. They purchased it on the Xbox or switch (I can’t remember) Your device (smart phone, tablet, or computer is your game controller. You need at least 4 people, but more is a lot more fun. we like the Tshirt design one and quiplash and murder party. 😬 we might have Jackbox 4? Quote
