Our take on Fibbage XL
The standalone format keeps the focus on Fibbage's bluffing rounds, but gives up the broader collection of games found in The Jackbox Party Pack. Its local setup also depends on having participants together and using a phone, tablet, or keyboard as the controller.
What is Fibbage XL?
Fibbage XL is a local multiplayer bluffing game for 2-8 players.
Each round presents an unusual question with a missing answer, and players type their own fabricated responses using a phone, tablet, or keyboard. The goal is to make other players accept a lie while avoiding their false answers and selecting the real one. Points are awarded when opponents choose a player's invented response. The game includes a family-friendly filter and Twitch login capability. It is available in English only and is presented as a standalone version of the game first included in The Jackbox Party Pack.
