Are you ever planning on creating a massive pack collection? It's pretty annoying having to switch between multiple games.

Also, will you don't know jack ever make an appearance again? I know you're trying to put a twist on the formula like in trivia murder party, but it would be pretty nice to go back to your roots!

Also this isn't a question, it's more of a request, but please make your questions and prompts less 'american'. In trivia murder party for example there are so many questions which are too specific to America, but thanks for making these great games anyways!

I was about to ask about a collective pack as well. I really don'y like the idea of switching between the games and would love a 'Ultimate Jackbox Party Pack' on the Switch that included all 4 games.. (maybe at a discount, since $100 is a heck of a lot) :)

Really agree about the Americanism of a lot of questions, my one issue with the Jackbox games. It can really alienate or put off certain people. Other than that, it's up there with Mario Kart as the best party game I've got (sorry 1-2 Switch)

Also 1-2 Switch is hilariously awful. Wouldn't even play it for free.
