The games included in this pack are a nice mix: Earwax, a unique audio adrenalin rush which includes explosions and fart noises Quiplash XL, the evolution of the brilliantly original funniest-answer-'em-up quiz Bidiots, an insane art based contest with added competitive auction action Fibbage 2, a classic call my bluff-style battle of misdirection, and Bomb Corp – step up for some bomb deactivating work experience where lives will be in your hands.

Billy no mates? Hey, don't cry – the good folk at Jackbox Games have even included Bomb Corp which is a team game that can be played on your lonesome. The games themselves see you using your phone or tablet to enter answers, draw pictures (with your finger), or interact with elements on the screen. The joy is that all players simply log on to and enter the code generated by the PS4 in order to join the game. If you played the first Jackbox Party Pack then you'll immediately feel at home, but even if that somehow passed you by, The Jackbox Party Pack 2 is brilliantly easy to set up, taking only minutes from booting up the console to getting everyone playing. To enjoy this madcap assortment of multiplayer antics you will need: a PS4, some friends – or at least other people willing to play the game – and for each of them to have an Internet connected phone, tablet, or, for some games, a laptop should work fine. Just when you thought that it was safe, the maverick party game creators at Jackbox Games are back to liven up your life with a cool multipack of titles, available to download onto your PlayStation 4 and bring the gift of competitive laughter to your next social gathering.
