Yes, this is the most expensive game I have talked about so far; however, this is actually a bundle of games. As it turns out, there are actually 4 bundles (JB Party Pack 1, 2, 3, & 4), and all of them are pure gold. While the title is just the first bundle, I will be speaking freely about all 4.

This is the bundle to buy if you are looking for low-investment, easy-to-play video games. Each game is basically an digital board game. Each player logs into a website designated for the game and puts in a game code and a player name. There are no filters, so beware streamers or people playing with children! The game itself is usually pretty ‘PG’ or ‘PG-13’ at most, but the people you play with alter the game pretty heavily.

Each game has a few rules, and then each player participates. For example, the game Fibbage requires each player to answer the same prompt, and then all the players have to guess the right answer. Points go to anyone who can fool their friends into picking their answer and anyone who can guess the right answer. All of the different games included in each bundle play pretty differently, and the announcer explains the gist of each game as you play.

Every time I see a group of friends and we all want to play video games, this is always one of the games we play. These bundles are beyond worth the price and have not stopped providing me and my friends from constant laughter and memories. I cannot say enough good things about these games. Please buy them if you play with friends often.
