Lots of games have adapted the Balderdash mechanics (Dixit comes to mind), but Fibbage does it best. The fake and real answers are revealed and scoring plays out like Balderdash. Players choose the word that they think is correct. Everybody’s words are displayed along with the correct word. Each player enters a word of their choice to fill the blank, with the goal of picking a word that other players would pick. In each round of Fibbage a YDKJ-style host reads a statement of fact with one word replaced with a blank space. Fibbage is basically Balderdash without the obscure words. Any player whose definition is voted for receives points, and any player who chooses the correct definition also receives points. Each player then votes for the definition that they think is real. The dealer then reads all fake definitions in addition to the real one. The player reads the word, and each of the other players write down a made-up definition. In Balderdash, the dealer draws a card which contains an obscure word and its definition. Whenever I explain Fibbage to others, I compare it to the mechanically similar (and classic) tabletop game Balderdash.
Their choice to make their games as accessible as possible, both from a technological and a design standpoint, is an approach I’d love to see other game developers run with. It is fantastic that they have branched out to create the party game Fibbage in addition to the entire contents of the Jackbox Party Pack. Jackbox excels at party games in this vein – it is basically the only sort of thing they have ever done. As the virtual credits rolled, the virtual host would remind us that we both owed him some virtual money on our way out of the virtual studio. Only one of us would win the tarnished round on account of being less terrible than the other. This would go back and forth until both of our virtual cash totals were both grossly in the negative. If one of us was behind the other one in the final round, we would mash the other’s buzz-in button on the keyboard, causing a significant score penalty. In particular, I remember playing the final round (the “Jack Attack”) with my brother. I remember playing the very first YDKJ with my family on our home computer and having a blast with it. They’ve done very few other projects over the years. Jackbox is a small studio, and YDKJ has been their bread and butter. The first YDKJ was released in 1995, and there were over 20 YDKJ games released over the next 20 years. YDKJ is stylized as a game show, featuring an irreverent audio-only host pitching zany multiple-choice questions to the side-by-side local players who each race to buzz in first with the correct answer (or to screw another player by forcing them to answer a question they don’t want to).
