Our holiday gift to you: an even better version of The Jackbox Party Pack to enjoy with your friends and family this holiday season! Download now and be as happy as the dog in our holiday trailer. ALSO, BIG NEWS: The game is now 10% off through The 2014 Steam Holiday Sale! This sale runs through Jan. 2, so now’s the perfect time to get the game for your holiday gatherings. People have been telling us it saved their Thanksgiving. Now it’s time to save Christmas, and Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa, and New Year’s, and all the awkward times in between. We’ve addressed some existing issues with this patch, but we are always working to fix any new issues. If you have a problem, please let us know at our support site, or on the Discussion thread on Steam. Patch Notes:

• Made some major infrastructure improvements to significantly reduce the chances of a Jackbox.tv connection getting disconnected from a game.
• Fixed various issues that could lead to the game freezing or soft-locking.
• Fixed some bold font issues.

Reminder: This game is SAME-ROOM MULTIPLAYER! All the games are party games meant to be played in a party setting in the same room, whether it be with your aunts, uncles, and cousin Brian who just got released from juvie, a double date night with your sister and her new French lover, or a just a room full of dudes on New Year’s Eve waiting for the balls to drop. THE balls… the New Year’s balls. HOWEVER, you can also create an online game experience using Steam’s brand new Broadcast feature, or by using another streaming service like Twitch. However you play… have fun out there, but be safe. We’re not responsible for any injuries sustained while laughing uproariously. Happy holidays!
