Each one is designed for four to 10 players. The packs are the most cost-effective way to get your Jackbox party started. Most of the Party Packs are also on sale from time to time. You can also always buy certain games individually, wherever they\u2019re available.<\/p>\n<p>These games are multi-platform, so they run on everything from Windows PCs and Macs, to game consoles and set-top boxes. You can find official Jackbox products on Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Apple TV and iPad, Amazon Fire TV, the Humble Store, Fanatical, Epic Games, Comcast Xfinity, the Mac App Store, and Android TV.<\/p>\n<p>To get started with Jackbox through Zoom, purchase the Jackbox games or packs you want from any digital storefront on your PC or Mac. For example, you can buy them from\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/442070\/Drawful_2\/\">Steam<\/a>, or the\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.epicgames.com\/store\/en-US\/product\/drawful-2\/home?sessionInvalidated=true\">Epic Games<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/drawful-2\/id1121426744?mt=12\">App<\/a> Stores. Again, you only have to buy the game once\u2014your friends and family can play for free, even if they don\u2019t own a copy.<\/p>\n<p>Install the game on your computer (no one else will have to do so to play). When it\u2019s up and running, you\u2019re ready to stream it to your friends and family through Zoom. You can also use any other screen-sharing software you prefer, including Steam Remote Play Together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Play Local Multiplayer Games Online with Steam Remote Play Together<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Play_Jackbox_Games_on_Zoom\"><\/span>How to Play Jackbox Games on Zoom<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When your Jackbox game is running on your PC or Mac, your friends will need to see your screen to play the game.
