It’s a shame that it’s only in English. A step backwards. For now, I can’t recommend the game. I’ll change my review once new languages are added to it.

HOLY PEAK HOLY PEAK JACKBOX IM JACKING IT HOLY ITS GOOD!!

I bought this pack solely for Legends of Trivia, and I am majorly disappointed. Everything about it is wrong. The co-op aspect should be reminiscent of a classic pub trivia night but it might as well not be a team game at all. Either one person knows the answer immediately and just shouts it for everyone else to pick, or people just guess random answers and slowly get killed, neither of which are fun for the group. You don't get time to deliberate and are pushed to just select whatever answer someone says first. The RPG theme is criminally underutilised. You have HP and take and deal damage as you answer questions but that is the extent of the RPG gimmick. Characters aren't distinct from each other, there's no special abilities or equipment you get use, even the few consumable items you pick up in your journey are the most generic "heal damage" and "block an attack". It's so unimaginative. They could have done so much with the concept but it's just so bland. Speaking of bland, why is there no voice over? For a D&D inspired fantasy theme, you'd think this would be the time to bring out a big personality to play as DM, voice some corny monster dialogue and read out the questions. But no, it's dead silent outside of the tutorials. The best part of games like You Don't Know Jack and Trivia Murder Party are the hosts. This feels so dry and lifeless without a host. Finally, and worst of all, the questions are just atrocious. We didn't know the answers to half of the questions because they're mostly American musicians or celebrity chefs of whatever, even though we turned off US-centric content, but not knowing a topic is a death sentence in this game. We had a Dis or Dat style boss fight about The Weeknd and Essie Nail Polish, an artist none of us know and a brand we have never heard of. In any other Jackbox trivia game, you'd get a question like that, answer it, some get it right some get it wrong, then you move on to a new question. In Legends of Trivia, if you get a question wrong in a boss fight, it keeps asking MORE questions on the SAME TOPIC. So since we didn't know anything about The Weeknd or Essie Nail, we got like a dozen questions about them, died 3+ times each, just locked in this endless looping hell of crap American trivia we do not care about. Even the questions we did know are just so god damn lame. There's no wit or charm to any of them, and when there's nothing else in the game to do besides answer generic trivia questions (ie the mind games in Fibbage, the minigames in TMP, the esoteric riddle questions in YDKJ) it's just so boring! I don't even want to talk about the other games. We didn't play Cookie Haus or Suspectives (my friends aren't big on drawing and social deduction games) but we did play the other two in the demo and they do not save this pack for me. This is weakest Jackbox pack to date by far. Huge disappointment.

*to the tune of fortnite battle pass* jack box party pack

Played all 5 games alone as all 4 players for all the achievements. Yes, I do have the definitely rare bragging right of having no friends. But it's still a good time! Hear Say was probably my favorite, it was fun to make silly relevant sounds into a microphone or just google "vine boom sound effect." Also enjoyed Legends of Trivia, campaign was short but otherwise delivers trivia in a neat way I haven't seen before. Other games were fine but probably best to hear about it from someone else, I don't think I'm getting the full experience by voting on which player made the best inside joke I could think of in the moment. Only bad game in my opinion was Cookie Haus, but that's more of there being better options in the party pack series than anything.

softlocked twice at the final boss of legends of trivia :(

the worst party pack by a mile

The voice actor for Legends of Trivia really put his whole badussy into that

Its.....okay. But it really suffers without including the next Trivia Murder Party, which is going to be a standalone. The games included are pretty forgettable, and my group quickly found ourselves going back to some of the previous packs.

i'm naming my firstborn after this game

Yeah, this is peak. Every game is super fun, no clear "bad" game to be seen (Looking at you Zeeple Dome).

Played Jackbox Party Pack 11 on stream with my community and it was an absolute blast. Every game had people laughing and spamming chat — it’s the perfect mix of fun and creativity. The new games are surprisingly solid, really love hear say and cookie hous. Definitely one of the better packs in recent years. Suspectives is very funny to play on discord and Legends of trivia is the first game cooperative of trivial. If you stream or just hang out with friends online or local with family, this one’s a must-have. Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) A hilarious, inventive, and endlessly replayable addition to the Jackbox legacy.

> Hyped for the release of Pack 11 > Get the pack and play everything > Pure peak and perfection every second Jackbox cooked, ate, and left no crumbs.

great but please let us skip the intro/tutorial for these games, especially legend of trivia

So just for context of my taste, I think packs 6, 7, and 8 are peak Jackbox, and 9 was a big ole disappointment, and I didn't even touch 10 based on reviews. And as a 6-8 fan, I think this pack is a return to form, finally introducing non-sequel games that are both creative and fun in ways we haven't seen in a while. Hearsay is the stand-out for sure, adding a completely new aspect to Jackbox that's both fresh and hilarious. Just a pro-tip (for in-person Jackbox parties) is that it's most fun when people can very quickly spread out (in our house, some people snuck to the kitchen, some to the basement, and one even went outside to the chilly yard). This way, there is no audio interference, which becomes a big problem if all 6-8 people sit in the same room making sounds. Also, the mini-games are finnicky and not fun, but I only just found out you can turn them off. The runner-ups for me are Suspectives and Doominate. Doominate is a fun humor-based Quiplash-esque that doesn't change the game, but is one of the more fun ones in a while. It lends itself quite quickly to what feels like effortless humor, which I think is the best metric for how fun these types of games get. Suspectives is a social deduction game that suffers only from one flaw, which is its unclear instructions on when you're supposed to be honest and when you're supposed to be lying We settled on what works, which is to require honesty but allow vagueness in the survey round, and then allow lying in the interrogation rounds. I think that's how it's supposed to work but we had to figure it out ourselves. Legends of Trivia we haven't tried enough to figure out if it's a hit or miss yet. It's ambitious, which I appreciate, but it feels a little too confusing for non-gamers, too slow for people just after the trivia, and having too little stakes for people who do want it to be a roguelike experience. Your mileage may vary. In the meantime, Cookie Haus is trash. I don't know why they made it. It's literally a drawing game with more artificial constraints than ever, unnecessary 3D graphics that are always shown flat anyway, slow unfunny dialogue in between rounds, and worst controls in any drawing game that I can remember. Cookie Haus is an easy skip, but the rest are great fun. It may be the first pack I got at full price and don't regret it whatsoever. Grab it.

i crack the cow

massive step up from the last couple of years. plays it a little safe in some regards but i think it's kind of the exact thing jackbox needed to do right now. looking forward to the future (please give us a new you dont know jack i beg of you). doominate - a good writing game that shares aspects of quiplash and survive the internet but manages to stand on its own, very impressive all things considered. probably the most solid overall hear say - a surprisingly good time (over discord, in real life, dont bother) but many on my group wished for more playback options after recording. personally i think if that was available it would make my dumbass perfectionist friends (also me) redo their sounds until the very end of the timer but maybe that's just me. the option would be nice. cookie haus - the prompts are relatively open ended and the wonky cookie shapes are great for inspiration. the drawing tools themselves are fun and definitely unique. too many of my friends want "relationships" with the host of this one (one is too many). probably my favorite as of right now suspectives - my group didnt get this one at first and it make me go a little crazy because i watched the 2 left thumbs overview and kinda knew what was happening. will only get better with replays. probably my favorite game aesthetically. legends of trivia - do not play this one with a stupid baby group that doesnt like trivia, i had 2 of said stupid babies and they did nothing but complain the entire time and call this the worst jackbox game ever. that soured the experience quite a bit but as such i only got 1 playthrough of the first location, with time this will probably end up being at the very least my second favorite. do not listen to the stupid babies, if you enjoy any of the trivia games you will at least appreciate this one

Absolute banger. We've only played Doominate, Legends of Trivia, and Cookie Haus so far but the level of care is something to behold. This is just straight up impressive work, John Box. Y'all killed it with this one.

One of the better Jackbox Packs in recent years! Most Jackbox games have a couple misses when it comes to "good" games that they include. I will say that Pack 11 has a solid 4 out of 5 good games - with the only miss being "Suspectives". (imo) The others are really quite solid and I'm genuinely impressed with the lineup this time around! Definitely a good option for someone looking to pick up a Party Pack but unsure of which is worth the price. Me and my chat loved checking this out and will be playing this more in the future for sure!

Definitely one of the most consistent packs of all time, there are several packs that have bad or mediocre games, not one of these I felt lacked in any form of enjoyment. Some very outlandish and fun ideas, no sequels and a smooth flowing pack that a 2 year break made so much stronger than its predecessors for quite some time (2019-2020). I'd say the break has paid off. This pack has so much variety, which many have lacked. From a D&D twist on a trivia game, to a detective role playing game where you get to accuse players, to the classic Jackbox prompt game where you have to make a scenario worse, a drawing game which is simple and blends whimsical scenarios with cookies and a game involving the phones microphone to create sound effects. This pack has so much that many will love and every game feeling distinct is something we haven't really seen since pack 6 or 7, so coming back to this formula with different artstyles and tones really allows each game to shine, whilst still having a classic jackbox feel. Not just consistent but also one of the most entertaining packs in a long time, had a blast.

The best Party Pack in consistency since Pack 7, but distinctly lacks a heavy-hitter title that Packs 8 and 9 both had. Doominate is a fun supplement title to Quiplash, tasking players to take something nice and "ruin" it in comedic ways, with each round having a twist on that formula, but it doesn't have as much staying power as the iconic comedy writing games. Hear Say has you make random sounds or speeches, and surprisingly is a great time for being just that, though works far better over call than in-person. There isn't really any other game that uses sound in the way Hear Say does, so it is the main game I see myself going back to the most. Cookie Haus is a simple four-round cookie drawing game, pretty enjoyable though nowhere near the peak of Jackbox's drawing games. It's cozy, but doesn't have the hype of Champ'd Up. Susceptives is a really fun social deduction game, the survey question base to find out who the criminal is works wonders for the social aspect, but it leans way too much in the favor of the innocents, especially if you aren't at the maximum player count. Legends of Trivia is the only true dud, the RPG setting isn’t used to the fullest and largely just feels like a background for the trivia; three worlds to clear also makes it way too short, although the individual games can drag on by themselves. I did recieve this product for free, but I was planning on buying it Day One after having played Early Access had I not gotten a free key.

I find in some of the jackbox packs that only one game is fun, in this pack I love every game! Great job!
