About this game

Best way to play jackbox games from an Android device

The application is a web browser showing jackbox.tv with the following benefits:
• Force portrait orientation
• Keep screen on
• Fullscreen mode

Toggle these options from the settings screen. Simply press the back button (or swipe the back gesture) and select settings from the popup menu.
If you need to reload jackbox.tv you can do it from the popup menu too.

Ratings and reviews

Its way too easy to get booted out of a game by accidentally letting your screen shut off, or accidentally pressing home. Then you cant play, and the whole game is ruined for the entire party. They need to let you rejoin ad a player instead of as audience if there is an inactive player in the game.

Perfectly acceptable It's basically just the same as going to jackbox.tv but with a couple of extra settings I guess. Save a tab on your internet browser? There don't seem to be any negatives. Just like 1% more convenient to join the jackbox games.

This app seems to clear its own cache every time you reload the page. This means: - You have to re-type your name every time; - You do not keep a list of previous games; - and, perhaps most regrettably, you are not able to rejoin games that you've crashed out of. Can't recommend this as long as this is the case.
