3/4 Bangers is pretty dang good for a Jackbox pack. WE DO NOT SPEAK ABOUT JOKE BOAT THOUGH
Trivia Murder Party 2 slays. Literally.
it's arright
TRIVIA MURDER PARTY 2: this game freaks me the fuck out and luckily no one i know likes trivia so i never have to play it
DICTIONARIUM: it is perfectly fine
PUSH THE BUTTON: poor man's amogus, little too involved but i like it
JOKE BOAT: doesn't make much of an impression but i have fond memories of playing it so i forgive it
ROLE MODELS: i absolutely adore this one but it has to be played with an especially close friend group

trivia murder party 2 and push the button are good enough. role models is fun a few times. the rest stink
amogus
trying to imagine the type of discord server that would have weekly dictonarium games. Anways trivia murder party on top
Trivia Murder Party 2 my beloved
This pack is 100% back to the bangers now and is probably the pack me and friends have played the most? Id say these are all great
#1 Push the Button - Could be a full game on it's own, a brilliant among-us-esque deception game.
#2 Dictionarium - Brilliant time of words getting more and more unhinged, there are so many classics we've made in this
#3 Joke Boat - Cringe in the best way, the repeated catchphrases make this great fun.
#4 Role Models - Simple but can create so many arguments, not enough prompts though
#5 Trivia Murder Party2 - Its still a great trivia game which shows how good this pack is.

has some misses but a few fun ones, like the alien game when anyone wants to actually play it
Jokeboat is literally the worst Jackbox game.
Trivia Murder Party: Excellent if you like trivia, lame if you don't.
Role Models: Only play this with close friends you know well. Has high potential to make people uncomfortable.
Dictionarium: Usually decently funny regardless of improv skills.
Joke Boat: Heavily relies on being witty. If you and your friends are bad at that, avoid this one.
Press the Button: Very unbalanced. Leads to some funny situations, though.

Probably weaker than the other packs I’ve played (3, 5, 7, 9, 10) but not bad. Joke Boat can be fun but honestly just play Quiplash instead. Trivia Murder Party slaps though
Some fun games, but besides Push the Button nothing much sticks with you.
push that button
Played quite a bit with friends and family. Trivia Murder Party 2 is one of the best games out of any pack.
Joke Boat: Fill in punchlines to generic joke setups. ALmost never works out for very little reward.
Trivia Murder Party 2: Trivia Murder Party 2
Push the Button: Among Us
Dictionarium: Create brand new words along with their definitions and synonyms.
Role Models: IDK didn't play

I like this one too but no one else does
For me personally, the weakest installment in the series.
I really like the Jackbox series. Just as Knowledge is Power, it is a party game with lots of fun, silly animations and a high replay value.
Unlike Knowledge is Power however, Jackbox is a little bit more versatile. Instead of being bound to your PlayStation and your smartphone, you can now use your phone or your pc/laptop to connect to jackbox.tv, and play. The connection and overall stability of the game is also a lot better.
There are many Party Packs for the Jackbox games. Each pack offers a set of minigames that you can complete with your company of friends or family. Most of them revolve around choosing the funniest answer, predict who might have answered a certain question in a certain way, or, in general, just who made the most ridiculous drawing. Throughout the mini games, players score points, the player with the most points wins. Easy and simple.
Of all the Jackbox Party Packs, I thought this one was a little disappointing.
In this Pack, you can play The Joke Boat, in which you complete lame one liners with your own response. The problem with this game is that the responses never match or resemble any kind of fun. Maybe it is intentional, but when playing with a group, we always skip this one.
Then you have Trivia Murder Party 2, in which you need to complete a series of very hard mini games, and try to stay alive and be the first to escape the mansion. This one is my personal favorite of this Party Pack and we almost only play this game when launching The Jackbox Party Pack 6.
Another lame game, in my opinion, is The Dictionarium, in which you must come up with funny definitions of a certain word. For me/us, this just did not work out and the lolz were nowhere to be found.
Another fun game was Push the Button, a Among Us style mini game, in which you need to complete various mini games and uncover the hidden alien on board. Along with Trivia Murder Party 2, this one was my favorite and we switched back and forth between them.
Lastly, you got Role Models, some kind of personally test in which you create some kind of formula about yourself. This one was the most disappointing and did not offer any fun.
The animations and art style of The Jackbox Party Pack 6 is colorful, jolly and silly. My biggest compliment here, is that all animations and slides within the games, are really fast, keeping the pace of the game at a very healthy levels.
The silly sounds, the jolly music in the background, enhances the experience and lets you have a good time with the game. In the sixth installment in the series, the music and sound in the Trivia Murder Party 2 game, is especially good.
With the right company, I can get aches in my stomach from laughing and I think that The Jackbox Party Packs are the best party games out there by far.
The Jackbox Party Pack 6 was all right, but only two games were fun out of five. Still recommend it though, Trivia Murder Party 2 and Push the Button alone, are worth it.

Trivia Murder Party 2 and Push The Button are certified classics, but for the others you kinda need the right people in order to be good. I've had my best and worst games of Jackbox on Joke Boat
Cum haha
One of the more fun ones, interesting games and I love Joke Boat.
Role Models: A game we play way more then I expected, it's fun for close friends.
Push the button: Among us with extra elements. Just like among us it's better with more people.
Joke Boat: Good but if you don't have good ideas it fails real bad.
Trivia murder party: A classic, always fun.
Dictionarium: Fun but it can quickly be ruined by a really bad first round.

Usual disclaimer that my experience with Jackbox is entirely dipping in and out of games at random with my friend groups, so my reviews are based only on the games I've experienced until I potentially update with the ones I haven't gotten to try yet.
I really enjoyed Trivia Murder Party - I didn't expect to, as I find the more personal games more enjoyable than the plain objective trivia ones and I didn't think I had a lot of general knowledge, but through pure blind instinct I've never lost a game of this, so I must be doing alright. The little minigames between each round are surprisingly fun and nicely varied.
Push the Button is one of my favourite Jackbox games of all time; Among Us-esque, but with much more to do and a pretty broad range of minigames. It can get heated, which is saying a lot because I'm very chill and not competitive at all, so if you're someone who gets fired up over games this may set a burning rage aflame within you, and the timer can make things stressful - I find that with a certain number of players the timer just doesn't feel like it's long enough to have any fair chance at deducing the imposters' identities through all the games because there are just too many people to thoroughly test, particularly when hacking and thus the uncertainty of any task failure comes into play. I enjoyed most of the minigames enough to actively look forward to being selected for testing. Overall, pretty creative and gameplay-heavy (as long as you're not being neglected in being chosen for games).
Not a fan of Joke Boat, personally. This game got complete crickets from all of us, and, not to suck the dick of everyone in my friend group including myself, I don't think it's because we're not funny people - every other game we've tried consistently gets us crying with laughter. The prompts on this one are just so, so bad, and I did not see a single good opportunity for a clever joke throughout this entire thing.

TRIVIA MURDER PARTY 2 - 0/1
A sequel filler game, and it's of one of the games I hate, immediate shitlist.
PUSH THE BUTTON - 0.5/1
Push the Button was gripping for a short while, but it's never played in my groups anymore due to other hidden identity games doing what it does, but in a far less complicated fashion that doesn't crawl at a snail's pace.
JOKE BOAT - 0.5/1
Don't be mistaken, Joke Boat is bad, its prompts are written in a way that you can't possibly make any good jokes 9 times out of 10, but sometimes the 10th joke comes, and it's the best thing in the whole night.
DICTIONARIUM - 0/1
Dictionarium has a very straightforward premise, but it doesn't have a throughline that makes its comedy consistent, it's an avenue for people to write random words and sentences that are hardly ever funny,
ROLE MODELS - 1/1
Role Models deserves 2 stars and is the only non-ambiguous reason to buy Pack 6, a cute game for tight-knit friend groups to place each other into funny archetypes that open up for a lot of memorable and interpersonal humour.
