As with any Jackbox collection, The Jackbox Survey Scramble includes a mix of engaging and weaker games. The common theme of surveys lends itself to questions that can sometimes be fun but often turn out more ordinary than expected. The more interesting half of the package being only slightly above average does not make it one of the most compelling titles in the series. However, the very low price might justify an impulse buy to liven up a night with friends.

Jackbox plays it safe with this adult-oriented collection, featuring two of its most effective games that more than compensate for the weakest new addition. The set only includes three games, which is less value compared to standard editions with five, but the option to use profanity and adult humor formalizes what many were already doing with the games, helping even shy players loosen up and join the competition. Since Jackbox Party Pack 9, the series has been fully translated, including text and voice, into several languages, including Italian, allowing everyone to enjoy it without language barriers.

COCOON is the perfect puzzle game, with impeccable design and varied puzzles that will please experts and enthusiasts. Its minimalism and assumed standard mechanics might challenge newcomers, but it's highly satisfying once you get used to it.

In Jusant, climbing is a refined and pleasant mechanic requiring attention and problem-solving. The game world tells a vibrant story with an impeccable presentation, all without words. For some, it will be just a walking simulator, but for others, it will be a full-fledged experience.

Father, forgive me for I have sinned, but I didn't understand this game, or rather, I understood it too well. The point seems to be that History, with a capital H, is unreliable by nature, told by the victors (or those determined enough to push their version), and that regardless of events, the future is always inevitable, giving us only the illusion of choice. Immersing in a community that changes over time, albeit imperceptibly, also due to our influence. But in my opinion, Obsidian erred in pride, focusing too much on excellent storytelling (which becomes heavy towards the end) behind a visually novel-like setup with a sprinkle of RPG elements, giving us the reins of a blinkered horse that refuses to turn when we command.

Beyond Blue falls short as a video game, with tedious interactive parts and a lack of integration with its informative content. Better suited for ocean enthusiasts, while others may prefer a documentary.

Crackdown 3 feels outdated and mediocre, failing to live up to modern standards. If the cloud was supposed to be the future of gaming, it falls short in this title.

Pumped BMX Pro sticks closely to its predecessor, resulting in a game that lacks originality and may become monotonous over time. It’s a barely satisfactory product that won't stand out.

Riot – Civil Unrest is more of a social commentary than a game, using video game simulation to discuss societal issues without imposing a specific viewpoint. It’s not a game you'll spend long hours playing.
