'''The Jackbox Party Pack''' is a series of party games developed and published by [[Jackbox Games]]. Each installment typically contains five games that are designed to be played in groups of varying sizes, including friends, family, and streaming services like [[Twitch]], the latter of which provide means for audiences to participate.

The series has been released on a multitude of platforms, including [[Windows]], [[macOS]], [[Linux]], [[PlayStation]], [[Xbox]], and [[Nintendo Switch]], among others.

== How to play ==
In order to play, only one person needs to own a Jackbox product for any platform of choice to host a game. Other players only need to see the game screen and connect from their mobile devices or computers through [[jackbox.tv]]—a website where players enter the room code seen in the lobby screen of each Jackbox game.<ref>Jackbox Games, "How To Play" (Retrieved August 23rd, 2024) https://www.jackboxgames.com/how-to-play</ref> Maximum number of players may vary; once the max player count is reached, other players cannot join unless the [[Audience]] feature is enabled, which will allow non-players to influence the course of the game.
