Pre-set room codes?

Playing fibbage and got the code "LYIN" and was wondering if this is a regular happenstance or a crazy anomaly. Seems too perfect to not be normal

Best party game apps that aren’t outdated?

Title basically says it: I’ve been searching Reddit for good party game apps, but a lot of the recommendations seem pretty old now. Same few apps from years ago, lots of dead-looking apps, or stuff that’s way too ad-heavy/paywalled.

I used to play Heads Up a lot, but it got repetitive after a while and you had to payat a certain point. Recently tried Boomit and it’s been the best one I’ve found so far for quick party questions / when nobody has cards.

Still looking for alternatives. What are people using in now?

Ideally something good for:

  • house parties
  • pre-drinks
  • friend groups
  • funny or spicy questions
  • no cards needed
  • low effort to explain

I know the usual names like Picolo, Exposed, Party Roulette, Cheers, etc.
Any newer apps worth trying?

It was a tossup between Cookie or Schmitty for the honorable mention but I just said fuck it and put both of them in

Buy, Skip or Hold?

Hi guys, I need some advice. I own every party pack other than these 3 and the og. I’ve read most opinions on whether these are worth it and the consensus from most reddit posts have been: strong buy on 6, moderate buy on 5 and skip on 9 (fib 4 carries allegedly).

So my question is whether you agree, and if you know of these packs having bigger discounts in the past? cause if it’s possible for 5 and 6 to be 50% off or more i’d rather wait. Otherwise, I’m happy to buy it at this price. I’m just still debating on 9, feel like the price could go lower, knowing that the pack doesn’t have much to offer other than fibbage 4 from what i read.

Is Jackbox in College worth it?

Hello, I'm an upcoming freshmen. I have packs 1-4, and 7 (and Survey Scramble). I was wondering if anyone has any experience playing Jackbox while living at dorms. I play it with my family at home quite a bit. Do other college students actually like to play them? Would it be worth it to get more of them, and if so which ones? I plan on getting them all eventually but I don't know if I should wait or not.

Got inspired by another grid-filling activity on this subreddit so I'm doing my own take on it, who's a good host from a good game?
