Over Priced

[Trykite]

Do you think this game is over priced

[Haywire]

Nope, not when you get 5 games in one.

[KuWanTum]

Nope, Jackbox party pack 1 or 2, with a room full of people and a load of alcohol, results in more than enough fun for the price to be worthwhile!

You can play it for free on Twitch!

I really wish people would stop claiming that videogames are overrpriced and devaluing the medium! When you consider that an hour and a half movie would likely cost you upwards of $10 for a single hour and a half of your time for entertainment in a one-off experience...

Most videogames offer you AT WORST around 3-4 times that duration, of which you can keep coming back to AND when you also consider the number of people that work on a video game and how much time that they spend working on it (for many upwards of 2-3 years). Anything under $30 is a complete steal.

By the logic of paying to see a movie alone most 4-5 hour videogames should set you back upwards of $80, but they don't. They ridiculously cheap on an entertainment per hour ratio and the amount of time you get with most games for the amount of time you spend playing them is incredible value for money. Even if it is only a couple of hours every now and then.

So No. This game isn't overpriced.

I agree with GambellGames and actually think this game is UNDER priced... most players probably paid $0 for it because...

Steam Spy says there's at least 14,655 owners, and if 100% of those got it on sale when it was $18.74, leaving $13.12 for Jackbox Games after Steam takes it's 30% cut, the game has probably made at least $200,000, which is good, but not great. It could have made a million if it had online multiplayer. As it stands now, most people have to use Twitch to play it, and doing that is free, unless you're the Twitch streamer.

This game is not overpriced. It provides MANY hours of entertainment. I'm hoping for regular updates or a part pack 3.

[Aradesh3K]

It's a bargain. Many many hours of fun, and some of the best laughs ever!

I've had so many parties playing this game, I'm already grabbing the second pack because we're starting to see repeats in FIbbage and Drawful. Plus, the new games look fantastic. It gets pulled out every time I have friends over, I've gotten my money's worth without a doubt.

Thanks for the support everyone!
