That said, there’s an awful lot to like here. ![]() Unfortunately, it does suffer from that comparison, as Use Your Words doesn’t cost much less at full RRP than a Jackbox Party Pack – which would usually contain a varied selection of five games. The problem is that the game being so close in feel to a Jackbox Party Pack title means that comparison is inevitable. It’s fun and – with the right group – can be a great laugh. If players struggle to think of an answer, they can use the ‘House Decoy’ button – but they won’t get any points if that answer is chosen. Players then choose the answer they like best, with everyone’s answers being displayed in turn – along with a House Decoy that’s will cause players to lose points if they choose it. Rounds take the form of different, word-based minigames where, for example, players enter their own suggestion for a subtitle after watching a short film clip, adding a newspaper headline to a photo or filling in blanks in a series of phrases. The object of the game is to have the most points after each round has been played. There, everyone enters the room code displayed on screen, followed by the name they want to use in game. So, what’s the deal here? When you start a game (handily being able to change to family friendly settings in the options menu, if playing with younger or more easily offended players), each player uses a web browser on their phone in order to access wordsgame.lol. Exacerbating the issue, there’s also a distinct lack of round types here, but each round – despite there not being many of them – is very entertaining and well thought out. Use Your Words really does hew very closely to the Jackbox template, though it only focuses on a single game concept, where each Jackbox Party Pack has multiple, varied game types included. Version Played: Xbox One (also available on PC, PS4 and Switch)Ī local multiplayer party game that’s suitable for non-gamers, using your mobile phone to play? Sounds very familiar, doesn’t it?
