Jackbox has surprise-released The Jackbox Megapicker, a free tool that lets you pick and choose which Jackbox titles you and your friends want to play.
Megapicker was originally announced last month, but we’ve now got a release date, and it turns out that release date is, well, today. The tool itself is free, but naturally, you’re going to need your own Jackbox games if you want to use it.
If you do have Jackbox games in your library, though, you’ll be able to sift through them and choose whichever one you want to play without having to load up the relevant game.
As well as a library for your Jackbox games, Megapicker also acts as a news platform for Jackbox games; Jackbox says it’ll put players “in the know about any announcements, sales opportunities, and upcoming releases”.
Naturally, you’ll also be able to organize your library and sort it according to your preferences, so if there are Jackbox games you don’t like, you can leave them out of your Megapicker if you prefer.
If you’re lacking Jackbox games, then the studio’s got some rather enticing offers for you to take advantage of, including a free game to get your collection started, as well as a sale.
First up, for the first week of launch – that’s between today and August 5th – Jackbox is giving away a free copy of Drawful 2, a guessing game that sees players voting on the best description of a drawing.
Additionally, if you like your time with Drawful 2 and you want to pick up new games – or if you’ve yet to embark on your Jackbox journey, full stop – then The Jackbox Party Pack, the first game in the series, is available at a 90% discount for a month starting from today.
Various other sales will also be available on Jackbox Party Pack games, so make sure to keep an eye on the Steam pages for the games so you don’t miss out.
The Jackbox Megapicker is available right now for free on Steam.
