The Jackbox Party Pack Series
The king of party games! This series boasts a plethora of quick, simple, and hilarious mini-games perfect for gatherings. Answer trivia, engage in online-style arguments, compete for laughs, and even pit your drawings against each other. Multiple packs are available, so you can choose your favorites.
Fotonica
A frenetic, slightly crazy auto-runner playable on a single device with a friend. It's thrilling solo, but even more intense with a buddy.
The Escapists 2: Pocket Breakout
A strategic prison-escape game. Play solo or team up with friends for an enhanced challenge.
Badland
Fun solo, but truly shines with friends on the same device. The floaty physics-based platforming becomes a uniquely engaging shared experience.

Bomb-themed mini-games for up to eight players over WiFi. A companion app lets friends use their own devices as controllers.

A fantastic sci-fi adventure requiring a lot of shouting and button-mashing. If you haven't played it, you're missing out!
BOKURA
Teamwork is key in this game. Communicate with your partner to conquer the levels.
DUAL!
A two-device Pong game. Sounds silly, and it is, but incredibly fun.
