Local mulĀtiĀplayĀer can be a tricky thing to set up with a group of friends. With things like a lack of conĀtrollers and inexĀpeĀriĀence holdĀing some playĀers back, the fun of playĀing games with your friends in the room has been fadĀing into the backĀground in favor of online play. Last year, JackĀbox Games answered back with one of the biggest innoĀvaĀtions in local mulĀtiĀplayĀer with The JackĀbox ParĀty Pack by introĀducĀing a way to have anyĀone join a game with their smartĀphone. It was one of my favorite gamĀing expeĀriĀences last year, so when I disĀcovĀered they were releasĀing The JackĀbox ParĀty Pack 2 with five more games attached to it, I leapt at the chance to try it out. As there are sevĀerĀal new games here, letās tackĀle them one at a time.
