The verdict
A solid, fresh-feeling Jackbox pack with standouts Hyperface and MegaPals, but uneven games and a high price. Skip it at full price if you own many packs.
Great for
Friend groups wanting fresh Jackbox games, especially fans of inside jokes and photo-morphing humor
Main risk
Only one or two games click with your group, so the $30 price feels too high
