The Wheel of Enormous Proportions is a trivia video game and one of five games featured in The Jackbox Party Pack 8.

Gameplay

All players will be presented with a text box on their screen of which they'll have to type in a question that they want the Wheel to answer. (If the Allow Player-Written Responses setting is turned off, then a game-written question is picked for them.)

The players will then be presented to the Wheel himself, before the game starts. After which, they'll earn two slices at the start of the round and be presented with three questions. There are different question types in the game itself:

  • Regular/Picking Questions: The question is shown on-screen, with 12 answers listed below it. The player's job is to pick the answers they think fit that category. A point will be added to their total for every correct pick and a point will be deducted for every incorrect pick.
  • Please Enumerate: These ask a question that has to be answered with a numerical answer. The players will have to enter a number ranging from 0 to 99,999.
  • Counterparts: A category is shown for this question type, of which the players will have to link an answer from the right column with its correct counterpart on the left column. Every incorrect match will freeze the player's device for about three seconds.
  • That or This: A question is shown on-screen with two different answers that will swap with others with every correct or incorrect pick. Every incorrect pick will freeze the player's device for about three seconds.
  • Don't Forget To Write: The players will have to type out all of the answers that relate to the question itself. Every incorrect answer will be shown on-screen. Every player who discovered a unique word will be rewarded with one extra point, depending on how many they've typed in.
  • What Am I Thinking?: The Wheel will ask a question with only one answer, and the players will then try to type in what the Wheel is thinking of. He will then give out up to five clues along the way.
