Trivia Murder Party 2 is much better for international audiences since they added the option to remove US-centric questions. So for me as a European, getting questions about US history or celebrities in the first Trivia Murder Party often lead to me and my friends just looking at each other asking ''who?''. But now we get the mix of ''Oh I know this!'' and ''Oh god what is this!?'' a lot more often and it feels way more balanced for us that aren't from the states.

every single time me and my friends play jackbox its "hey wanna play jokeboat" "jokeboat fucking sucks ass but hell yea lets do it i love jokeboat"

Joke Boat will always be my favorite jackbox game for simply being so bad it’s good. Since there’s no opportunity to make good jokes the game turns into utter nonsense, which I find to be an absolute blast

My main issue with joke boat is not only the restrictive openings, but also how FEW there are. If you play it a few times you will notice there are not very many and its not very replayable despite *almost* being great

6:45 I jumped into a jackbox twitch stream playing tmp2, became the audience cuz why not, and then Won the game because I was the only audience player. I for sure laughed my ass off.

The thing that makes TMP 1 and 2 for me is how the selection of trivia seems to be meaner. There's no more "skill gap" based on who's more in tune with pop culture since a lot of the questions are designed to be a little BS so that you spend more time playing minigames and the chance of dying is actually there. It also makes it so that when you do get a question right, either by sheer luck or actually knowing it, its all the more sweet.

To be honest, I absolutely loves Joke Boat despite the fact that I fully agree with your review of it

I vividly remember the first time I saw Among Us, on a livestream someone was watching, and thought "this literally just looks like Push the Button with a Newgrounds budget."

i usually prefer to be the detective over being the alien. but i’ll never forget watching two of my friends get into a HEATED argument with 1:30 left on the clock, accusing eachother of being the alien. i was the alien and just let them go at eachothers throat😂

something about push the button that i personally love is the visuals as time progresses, stuff as the glitches (ranging from the text, the hourglass, dode, and even the controller), the players freaking out in the waiting room, the timer getting progressively more dramatic, and even the rooms getting a little bit messy. this game really makes it feel like everyone is going to die and i really love it

Jackbox 6 is one of my favorites. I love Role Models, Trivia Murder Party 2, and Amon- I mean push the button.

Can we take a moment to appreciate Party Pack 6’s menu, I love the way it comes together

I wanna say this- I bet you lot that both Trivia Murder Party 2 and Push the Button were meant to be the pack's big stars, while Joke Boat, Dictonarium and Role Medals were meant to be the shorter supplementary games to balance out with TMP2 and PtB's potentially long lengths. Because you know, it's a goddamn pack. Also, I love the fact that they expanded the LORE for the serial killer.

Your reason for disliking joke boat is actually why I love it. Trying to make these ridiculous jokes work creates a lot of funny moments where you can tell the person just gave up. As an alternative to quiplash I think it succeeds.

I _COMPLETELY_ forgot that Push the Button existed. We never pull out Party Pack 6, because no one really liked any of the games when we played it. A big flaw is that I only ever play with my family. If I got a great group of friends--- or heck, even just strangers my age--- together, I bet we could have an absolute blast with Push the Button. I seriously need to try this pack again keeping the stuff about Role Models in mind as well.

Dang the shade...my friends and I love Joke Boat. It's not perfect, but the prompts can make for great jokes if you're clever and we love the little sayings each character can pick for their intros. "I'm a little patio set!"

The more I rewatch this series of videos the more I realise how much Silo doesn’t like people who play Jackbox muted 😭😭😭 it’s understandable I just think it’s funny how much it’s brought up hehe

Your complaints about joke boat are the exact reason why i love it so much. I feel like the fact its so restrictive makes any joke you wanna make seem extremely unhinged and its hilarious

Something funny about me and Push the Button; I was watching a Push the Button game and thought "man I gotta get this." So I went to the app store and ended up finding Among Us. The best part is that this is before AU got big, so the other maps needed to be purchased and it was less polished.

Part of the reason that the killer in TMP2 is more audible is that his voice filter is applied in post, rather than being baked into the clip itself. You can go into the game files to hear Spencer's voice unaltered. It just adds the filter on when it's played back in the game engine.

Pack 6 is such a mixed bag for me since it simultaneously contains some of the best games in the series alongside some of the absolute worst. However, I found that this pack really grew on me the more I played it. Trivia Murder Party 2 took everything that made the 1st one good, and improved upon it. The trivia is more updated, the minigames are more interesting and the presentation is top notch. Admittedly, I wasn't a huge fan of the gate feature in the final round since I saw it as a means of leaving players in the dust, but as I played it more and more, the more I appreciated it and found that it works as a smart equalizer and a tension builder. Trivia Murder Party 2 is by far the best trivia game in the entire series. For me, Role Models falls into the same pitfall as Tee-KO and Talking Points where the developers had a strong concept, but didn't know how to implement a proper scoring feature. The idea is strong and has led to some funny moments, but it never felt like a functioning game; it was more like a toy as you said in the video. If you're playing with close friends, it's an absolute blast laughing and arguing over who fits what category, which I enjoy. However, this game is borderline impossible to play with strangers and becomes more frustrating than fun. Joke Boat Sucks. I can't add anything else that hasn't already been said in the video. The prompts are too restrictive, the pacing is slow, and it doesn't even fall into the ironically funny category; it's just painful to play. Just play Quiplash or Survive the Internet (even if the latter is too open ended at times imo); this is by far the worst fill-in-the-blank game in the series. Dictionarium just kind of exists for me personally. While it can be funny, I never find myself dying to play this with friends everytime we play Jackbox. One thing that I'm surprised you didn't mention in the video is how close you need to follow the game's instructions in order to enjoy this one. Since every round builds upon the previous, everyone needs to follow the games directions and come up with actual synonyms/definitions. In games like Survive the Internet and Patently Stupid, players can get away with straying from the intended format/structure as long as the end results are funny. In Dictionarium, as soon as players stray away from what the game is asking of them, it immediately falls apart and the end results are just underwhelming. Not the worst Jackbox game by a long shot, but not one that I'd commonly return to. Push the Button definitely grew on me the most as I played it more. The first time I played it was on a Discord call with friends at 3:00 in the morning and none of us knew how to play it, which led to an underwhelming experience. However, I played it again a few months later and it was far more enjoyable, and was surprised by how nuanced the social deduction is in this game (more nuanced than Among Us imo). My only real issue with this game is that it requires a lot of effort to learn and teach to others, leading to a higher entry level, and that's not even entirely the game's fault. Can't really say anything else that hasn't already been said in the video. TL;DR: Overall, Pack 6 is a solid pack, even if the selection is a mixed bag imo. It's best games are some of the best in the series and are worth buying the pack for alone (Trivia Murder Party 2 and Push the Button). Role Models and Dictionarium are solid, but not must-plays imo, and Joke Boat just flat out sucks; just play literally any other fill in the blank game in the series. End of my long ramble. I can't wait to hear your full thoughts on Pack 7 in the future!

I love the game, but I’ve had Trivia Murder Party 2 ruined for me by playing with several people who have memorized the entire question roster, making it nearly impossible to win without also cheating yourself. Things like this are what ruin all trivia based Jackbox games, especially when they get played on streams.

In my personal experience, Dictionarium works well as a warm up/cool down game during Jackbox nights. It's simplistic, and rounds go quickly, so it's a good exercise to warm up the group and get their brains ready to write quality stuff in Quiplash, or for when the party is winding down and people are starting to exit. I have this same feeling about Blather Round in PP7 as well - more low key games for when the group is at a lull and not at full blown party mode.

Jackbox 6 is great, it really reminds me of why we left my father

My favorite gift item in Trivia Murder Party 2 is the grandma wig

I honestly didn't even know about the multiple endings in Murder Party 2.

Don’t even apologize for how long it took to make- this is the quality I’m here for and I don’t care how long it takes. Brought a smile to my face as soon as I saw the thumbnail :)

My groups favourite game is role models. We love how goofy it is and when you get a set of roles that fit perfectly it's brilliant. The only part we don't really like is how short it is. We wish it was at least double the length

So you just not gonna mention how much the Dictionarium credits song slaps?

I love Dictionarium :( No one else seems to enjoy it like I do. I could play it for hours.

Jokeboat is one of the most games I've ever played. The jokes aren't funny at all but they're too stall and weird to be funny ironically. It's just leaves people after the game questioning what they just played.

I was in the footage! Even if it was 8 months ago it's still fun to see it

i am oddly someone who likes joke boat. i see it as a personal challange to make any joke funny.

I've only ever played jackbox 2 but I don't care. This series is hecka entertaining.

Thanks for releasing this, love your content but this is my favorite series from you

Jackbox 6 is my favorite Party Pack as well! My friends and I love playing Role Models a ton with each other, and I love how much it experiments with all its games and how different they all feel.

The one time I played Push the Button everyone was taking it entirely too seriously and I got stressed out and upset

Yo Silok! I just wanted to say that i love your videos and think your review style is one of my favorites on YT. Keep going strong!

Man, I bought Jackbox 6 FOR Dictionarium. The narrator and credits song add so much, just wish it actually saved all entries

People going from comparing a game to mafia, to comparing it to Among Us. How times change...

Yoo love this series introduced me to the Jack box games

YOOOOOOO NEE JACKBOX JUST DROPPED REEEEE REEEE THANK YOU SILOKHAWK

we need a "jackbox megapack" that has every jackbox game ever. that would be pretty funny.

excited for the 7 review, easily my favorite party pack overall

Liking the use of Persona Q2 music

Me and my friends played Joke Boat and really liked it

7:13 I want to show you something! *(ad plays)*

Not only is Joke Boat a bad game, but when my friends and I played it, the game was super buggy - from not letting us submit answers to selecting the wrong option when tapped

My favorite was from dictinariom( if that's how you spell it). When they put down Gadd- sexual, and the sentence, made me laugh 🤣

This party pack gets too much hate. I have yet to play Push The Button, but one of my friends actually asked me to boot it up for Trivia Murder Party 2 once. So it definitely hit the mark.

Joke Boat was the game that I played over at a family member's house and that sold me on the entire franchise. Now I own all 8 packs!

For me Push the Button seems just as random and incomprehensible as Among Us. I miss everything that is happening, I have no idea what is going on and instead of participating and being in the know, I sit there confused and stressed. And to top it off hacks means aliens always win whenever we play it in friend group. Maybe I'm not a fan of social games at all where it's entirely up to who you're playing with that dictates how fun the game is.

He said you can only die in the mini games yet neglects to mention uncle clive's time bomb

I wish that my friends and family weren't practically illiterate in English (I don't live in a English-speaking country), otherwise we could be having so much fun with the Jackbox games!

Everybody I play JBPP with only wants me to pull out 6 for Trivia Murder Party 2, they never want any other game in the pack

I’m also waiting for a possible Trivia Murder Party 3, mainly to see what location they base it on and how it ties into the minigames. Game 1 was set in an undisclosed location and not really tied to anything, but game 2 being set in an old hotel with the minigames tied to the rooms was such a good idea. My money’s on a possible game 3 being set in an abandoned theme park with attraction-based minigames.

Push the Button might have just sold me the entire Party Pack 6 on its own.

I can’t remember a time where murder mystery games were related to mafia anymore

As this being the only pack I own I find it enjoyable.

Babe wake up new SilokHawk Jackbox review dropped ‼️‼️

LET'S GOOOOOOO IT'S FINALLY HERE

I find Dictionarium underrated. I use it to play any short games or anything.

I love that you put Ambxrryy as "not sus" literally get a perfect round

My biggest problem with joke boat is honestly the final round. Because everyone is given two options for the joke they rewrite, that leads to some people gaining more points for having worse jokes since they’re easier to rewrite, and making the first round feel pointless.

one thing im surprised you didnt touch on is the fundamental difference in how PTB and among us are formatted in who has to work for victory the sense that in PTB the humans are the ones who are on the stress clock, when in among us it's the imposters who are on the stress clock if that makes sense

god, just the brief mention of talking points got me losing my shit for 30 seconds straight remembering a legendarily stupid moment my friends and i had playing it. such a better comedy game than joke boat

Joke boat was really funny when one time i just put “mark” for every word I could

Role Models reminds of another party game called “That’s You!”

Can’t wait to see trivia murder party 3 sometime in the trilogy 4.0

Dictionarium is actually one of may favorites, along with Trivia Murder Party 2 and Push the Button

Confession: I think Joke Boat is kinda fun

31:40 Hahaha testees

There was one play session in the server for Push the Button In the first round, I sucked, and everyone assumed I was an alien when I wasn’t because I sucked In the second round, I was an alien, but people didn’t know it was me since I sucked the first round

5:54 can’t believe I laughed at this 😂

TMP2 - Amazing Role Models - Great Joke Boat - Good Dictionarium - Alright Push the Button - AMOGUS But in reality I like it.

19:07 my main man Jed

You know they actually released the Jackbox Starter Pack? I think it features Quiplash 3, Trivia Murder Party 2, and Tee-KO You think they’d be good games for a starter pack?🙂

I can say that he is the alien

I’m in the video

29:12 Hey Y’all Scott Here

Does anyone know what happened to his video on censorship in gta v?

I remember playing Push The Button (along with some other Party Pack 6 games) with my old friend group freshman year of college. It was getting late and one round was going so badly with people yelling and calling each other names. It was nasty. Friendships definitely ended that night (if they weren't slowly being drained anyway). Being a mostly neutral observer to what was unfolding in front of me was...interesting to say the least. Needless to say, that was the last time we played Push The Button together lol

Awesome video. Btw you should make a video about Wii party

As a big nerd/geek/virgin/weezer fan, dictionarium is probably the most underrated jackbox game ever. With the right group of people, it has the potential to be better than quiplash.

4:23 When I get to the final round when I can play the game Sweating intensifies Ngl that's a good song you can't deny it

holy crap lois

I only pull out pack 6 for joke boat and dictionarium it was also my first jackbox no joke

Honestly, I wish these jackbox games could be updated to have more prompts or settings options. Every pack stands out in various ways and so many of them just need little tweaks to be better.

One of my favorites

1:21 Classic Album

We're getting closer to all packs reviewed every day

its interesting because party pack 6 seems like one of the weaker entries to me. Like, if it wherent for trivia murder party 2, it probably wouldnt be nearly as popular. Even one of the better games, push the button, is flawed in that, the hacking mechanic just goes against the game's premise completely. It lets people just make the excuse "ah man guess I was hacked" every time.

29:16 answer c I completely agree with

Jokeboat is my favorite jackbox game tho ): its the only reason i bought it

I have literally never seen the gifts minigame in any of my times playing tmp2, strange

I love role models

7/8 and 9 for the jackbox party pack

I forget this one exists

18:27 That is a fucking lie, I ask every time

Yes
