Played with a group of friends, and the host used the PC version. We played all the available games in the pack, but I personally enjoyed The Wheel of Enormous Proportions and Drawful Animate the most.
Should I get together with a group of friends again to play party games, I might return to this one.

Not the best Jackbox, but it's fine in a pinch.
Job Job: The funniest one if your friends know how to spout random bullshit. Low improv skill required.
Wheel of Enormous Proportions: Trivia/luck, heavy on the luck. A compromise between trivia enjoyers and trivia haters that feels acceptable, but not amazing, for both.
Drawful Animate: Hit or miss. Some prompts are too obvious if you're good at drawing.
Weapons Drawn: A bit rough but this one is okay. Like Drawful, works better if you're bad at drawing.
Poll Mine: Doesn't work well with small groups, great for streamers.

JOB JOB GOAT
Haven't played too much yet, but it was fun.
Another massive Jackbox W. I think every game in this pack is pretty good, Poll mine and Job Job taking the cake for the best though
Drawful Animate: Drawful but now you make 2 drawings as seperate frames for tiny animations.
Job Job: Personal favorite game, everyone writes a paragraph, only for the words to be mixed up and spread to everyone else, and you must use those to answer new questions. The more unhinged and filterless the players are the funnier it gets.
Poll Mines: Everybody answers a question, then you must guess which answer was averaged the highest among the group. Lot of fun when you know the other players well
Wheel of Enormous Proportions: Garbage Trivial game, takes way too long and has no redeeming qualities over any of the many other trivial games.
Weapons Drawn: Murder Mystery game where you must draw a weapon with a preset letter of your name put in.

almost every game is bad so this would naturally get a very low rating but job job is far and away the best jackbox game so like?

Job Job: Probably one of the best jackbox games i've played. If you want to be nice to your friends you should add some punctuation to your prompts.
Drawful Animate: Cool idea but my usual group are not skilled artist (minus one) so this one doesn't get played.
Weapons Drawn: If you have a group that likes to argue then this is a good one. My group has a lot of fun with this one.
Wheel of enormous proportions: A warning my group (and the streaming group I watched play it) were very confused on the first playthrough of it. But overall a good quiz game.
Poll Mines: Fun game, not a whole lot to say about it though.

This one tbh is a let down but it did come after the best one made so
job job
Always impressed with the game concepts they come up with even though this pack seemed a little weaker than previous ones.
Generally on the weaker side of packs. It is almost entirely held up by Job Job, the rest I dont really see us ever revisiting.
#1 Job Job - A top 10 jackbox game, absolute chaos of everyone taking shots at eachother and creating the absolute worst sentences ever.
#2 Wheel of Enormous Proportions - A solid trivia game, but I'd always be rather playing Murder Party if I want trivia
#3 Poll Mine - Can be fun 1 or 2 times but loses it's appeal pretty quickly
#4 Weapons Drawn - I think my mates are all just too dumb to understand this game consistently, probably not the games fault.
#5 Drawful Animate - Just a worse Drawful, don't bother with this one.

WEAPONS DRAWN - 0.5/1
Weapons Drawn opens itself up for a lot of humour, making it a very frequent play but actually playing it is a bit of a nightmare, it's incredibly slow paced, far too complicated and the investigation part isn't fun whatsoever.
THE WHEEL OF ENORMOUS PROPORTIONS - 1/1
Wheel is far less infuriating to play compared to other trivia games in the series and spices it up with an element of chance in its scoring system, even as someone who doesn't like trivia games, I find this one enjoyable for those odd moments of excitement.
DRAWFUL ANIMATE - 0.5/1
It's Drawful but you draw two images that make a flipbook animation, as far as drawing games go, it's not a frequent play in the slightest, but it's fun when we eventually go with it.
THE POLL MINE - 0.5/1
Poll Mine is an incredibly popular pick in my groups that's always a hit, it allows for a lot of discourse and some satisfying teamwork, but it's not what I would actually call fun to play.
JOB JOB - 1/1
If we have to have a Jackbox game that constantly comes back in future packs, I'm honestly down with shooting Quiplash in a field somewhere and making Job Job the new mainstay, it takes the basic Prompt-And-Answer concept of Quiplash, but being limited to only words written by other players makes for extremely unhinged and absurd punchlines.

The Midbox Party Pack 8
binkly bittlebottom the thrid
El calvo surge de una tarta.
- Drawful Animate: Drawful pero animado (y con animado me refiero a dos fotogramas). El factor animado hace que me resulte más interesante que Drawful normal, pero otros juegos de dibujar son mejores. 3.5/5
- Job Job: Responde a preguntas y después utiliza palabras individuales de esas respuestas para hacer más respuestas. La única razón para comprar este pack, es muy divertido, y es mejor si pones muchas palabras que respondiendo en serio. 5/5
- Poll Mine: No lo he entendido bien. Creo que se trata de escoger las opciones más comunes en una serie de encuestas. Está ok y ya. 2/5
- Weapons Drawn: Lo jugué hace tiempo y lo detesté tanto que ni lo volvimos a probar. En consecuencia no recuerdo de qué va, pero es muy malo así que me la suda. 0.5/5
- Wheel of Enormous Proportions: Juego de trivia. Si respondes correctamente recibes piezas. A más piezas más posibilidades de ganar puntos en una ruleta posterior. Hay juegos de trivia mejores y más divertidos. 1.5/5

it's not my birthday
drawful animate (4.5/5) - i love drawful, it's one of my favorite jackbox games ever. this would be a perfect 5 if it wasn't for the animation part, not a big fan of that part, but the prompts in this drawful are the best
job job (4.5/5) - also one of the best jackbox games, as long as people put in enough words. makes for super funny scenarios, great game
poll mine (3.5/5) - pretty solid jackbox game, can get heated if people disagree though, good concept tho
weapons drawn (4/5) - i think this one is really underrated. i LOVE the concept, hiding the letters in the drawings is really fun, the only downside is how long the game is
wheel of enormous proportions (3.5/5) - it's not a bad game, but it's the weakest one in this pack for me perhaps. some of the questions eh, but i like that it's partially luck based
