Minecraft is a exploration and building game available on almost any system, PC, or phone. Participants won’t have any strict goals, instead they’ll be collaborating creatively to explore and build whatever they come up with! Matches will be playing within the same in-game world, talking with each other, and creating together. If you’re unfamiliar with Minecraft but you know your Little plays it, think of this as similar to interactive, digital, collaborative Legos.
Jackbox is a collection of free to play group party games! To join in on the fun, all you’ll need is a browser open on a phone, computer, or tablet. For all Jackbox games you’ll need to have a second window open on your computer, or a phone/tablet available. You’ll go to jackbox.tv in your browser and enter the room code shown in Discord to join. All of your answers, submissions, or voting will be done on a browser either through your phone or computer.
Click on the orange “Register” button below and you’ll receive the event link in your order confirmation. Please note that you won’t be able to see the entire server until 15 minutes before the event starts.
Participants will need access to Discord, a copy of Rocket League on any console or computer (if playing), and a phone or computer screen for Jackbox (if playing).
Big Game nights will be hosted on a Discord server that will let participants hang out, voice chat, and send messages to each other! Discord is similar to Zoom or Slack, but set up specifically for collaborative gaming. Discord can be accessed via desktop program, and a browser based version, or phone app.
Check out the videos below, “How To Navigate Discord for Matches” and “How To Adjust Discord Microphone and Audio Settings” for helpful tutorials on how to use Discord.
