Jackbox are trying something a little different with their latest party game, that uses answers from everyone to make it constantly unique in the The Jackbox Survey Scramble. A collection of survey-based games that starts off with four game modes at launch, with plans to add more game in modes in free updates.
It supports 2-4 players with no special controller required, just a phone or tablet will do like their other games. All modes in this one support English, French, Italian, German, Castilian or Latin American Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. Jackbox also said they'll be ensuring localised answers are available for the UK and Australia.
As usual for Jackbox, it has full Native Linux support. Check out the trailer:

The currently included game modes are:
- Hilo: Can you guess the most popular one-word cat names? How about the least? In Hilo, compete to find the most and least popular answers to a wide variety of questions. The rankings may surprise you! It turns out a lot of people named their cat Frank. That's a freebie.
- Speed: In the fast-paced Speed, think on your toes to uncover as many answers on the list as possible, as quickly as possible. It’s everyone for themselves in a race against the clock! Each round the points increase, and the stakes get a little higher! Can you handle it?
- Squares: Two teams compete to claim three squares in a row on the grid. Guess popular choices for the first squares, semi-popular choices for the middle squares, and least popular choices for the final squares. We guarantee, you've never had a more heated argument over attractive fictional characters than you will playing Squares.
- Bounce: In Bounce, two teams control a paddle that sits on a scale between most popular-to-least popular answers. Work with your team to guess an answer that puts your paddle in the right place to intercept a bouncing ball and stop your opponents from scoring a goal! But be careful! The ball gets faster with each answer!
