For multiplayer party games, you can't get more fun and consistent than Jackbox! And with the upcoming Jackbox Party Pack 12 set to arrive later this year on multiple platforms, naturally, we were interested to see what new minigames they had in store. Now, the wait is over as Jackbox have unveiled what's arriving in this newest entry of the series.

If you're not already familiar, Jackbox is a spinoff of the popular quiz game You Don't Know Jack that debuted all the way back in the 90s. Each Party Pack features all manner of eclectic minigames you can play with friends by using your phone as a controller.

Turns out you do know Jack

Alright, enough waffling, let's get into the new games:

  • **We Forgot a Card:**Craft bizarre greeting cards with the 'help' of your friends and compete to make the most outrageous heartfelt messages.
  • **MegaPals:**Test how linked you are to your friends by guessing what they guess in record time.
  • **Debate and Switch:**Probably the one I'm most looking forward to. You're tasked with arguing for and against ridiculous positions in a 'town hall' style debate to win your friends to your side.
  • Idol Factions: A sort of strategy trivia game where you need to direct and sort factoids into their correct category faster than the other team.
  • **Hyperface:**Squash, stretch, and contort your pals' features to react to prompts. Definitely a great use of the phone controller!

As I said, there's plenty here I'm looking forward to playing with my friends. Keep an eye out for Jackbox Party Pack 12, featuring all these great new games, arriving later this fall!

And in the meantime, if you want to hone your trivia skills and train your brain, then you're in luck. Why not check out our list of the best puzzle games on Android for some of our favourite picks you can play right now?

Slots & Daggers sees you leaving things up to chance in this dark fantasy Balatro-like

Ever since Balatro combined the roguelike with poker, it seems that many developers have tried their hand at coming up with a similar combination. And the RPG has been a favourite to try and put a twist on, as you can see with the newly released Slots & Daggers for iOS and Android! Already releasing on Steam to rave reviews, Slots & Daggers combines a strange dark fantasy world with slot-machine style spins to acquire weapons, armour and equipment.

The Convergence is a dark fantasy auto-battler that uses an isometric perspective

That's a genre I've often expressed confusion about the appeal of in the past, but if there's one that can justify why people like it, I reckon that The Convergence, out now on iOS, may just be that! With its isometric perspective and dark fantasy world, it's easy to see that The Convergence may have taken some significant inspiration from the world of Diablo. In it, you equip your heroes and send them out, watching as they either succeed or fail based on your preparation. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/the-convergence/out-now-on-ios/)
