\"\"<\/a>If you are stuck at home right now and want to play a multiplayer game with family and friends, but you don\u2019t have enough controllers, then Jackbox has you covered!\u00a0 One of their most popular titles, Fibbage XL, has come to Nintendo Switch, and you use cell phones or other mobile devices to play it!\u00a0 Just connect to jackbox.tv on any phone, enter in the room code, and you\u2019re in!<\/p>\n

Two or more players can play Fibbage XL.\u00a0 The game will ask you a question, and each player must come up with an answer.\u00a0 But it can\u2019t be the right answer.\u00a0 With your phone, you must type in a lie or fake answer that\u2019ll trick the other players.\u00a0 If you can\u2019t think of one, you can choose for the game to come up with one for you, but you won\u2019t get as many points.\u00a0 Then everyone will have to answer the question with multiple choice answers.\u00a0 If another player picks your lie, you\u2019ll get points.\u00a0 Also, one answer is the true one and if you pick that one, you\u2019ll also get points.\u00a0 Whoever has the most points by the end of a few rounds, wins!<\/p>\n

This is a great party game but I did have a few problems with it.\u00a0 Usually in Jackbox games they explain the rules pretty well.\u00a0 But they didn\u2019t do that here.\u00a0 Luckily I had already played Fibbage so I knew what to do.\u00a0 And it\u2019s pretty easy to figure out otherwise.\u00a0 Also, probably because more people are at home now and maybe playing Jackbox games more, their servers were running slower and I had to hit refresh on my phone many times for the current screen to pop up.\u00a0 It just made it a little harder since you have a time limit to type in lies.\u00a0 Speaking of people staying at home more because of COVID, my brother Jeff, who helped me play this game, told me of a great idea to play this game while social distancing.\u00a0 You can stream this game via streaming devices, and then others can view it online in real time and play it via their phones!\u00a0 It\u2019s a neat idea to play and stay connected, and Fibbage XL is a great party title overall.<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fibbage XL is rated T for Teen with ESRB descriptors of Drug References, Sexual Themes, and Violent References.\u00a0 All these are in the text only, although it would be nice if Jackbox would include a kid-friendly mode or made family versions of their games.\u00a0 But until they do something like that, this one is best for older players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
