Cross-plaform between PC and console?
Just a quick question:

As this is suports cross-platform on PC with mobile devices, does this also support console to PC games?

The game doesn't actually run on your mobile device, it runs on the PC. You use an internet connected device with a web browser (such as a smartphone) as the controller.

Does that mean, that you log into someones running game on pc, via web browser, and play that way?

@sxe yes, you host the game on a console/pc. To join, you go to a website (jackbox.tv) and login to play. The games require typing, and drawing for drawful, so console controllers will not work.

I believe it's only on the platform, you can always connect a laptop to your TV and play it that way?
