You Don't Know Jack: Headrush Description
You Don't Know Jack: Headrush is the eleventh installment of the popular series of logical games You Don't Know Jack. Unlike the previous games in the series, which were adaptations of the popular TV show broadcast by the American TV station ABC, Jackbox Games' spin-off production is addressed to younger audiences and contains questions about the knowledge that teenagers have.
Players play the role of the participants of the TV tournament and, like in the TV prototype, try to answer crazy questions. The puzzles have different forms - from quizzes, through rebooks and verbal puzzles, to more or less complex logical tasks. In most cases, both questions and answers are kept in a humorous tone.
The game offers several variants of fun. In one-person mode the player can face competitors controlled by artificial intelligence. The multiplayer option allows you to compete against live opponents on a shared screen.
You Don't Know Jack: Headrush stands out with its crazy audio-visual setting. The game has simple, two-dimensional graphics with funny models of characters. The game is accompanied by numerous cartoon interviews and humorous animations depicting the development of the situation (e.g. avatars of opponents turning into skeletons after a failed answer and loss of money).
