Radiance Feature - The Jackbox Series
Starting this weekend as a permanent fixture to the loyalty I've spent on Obscure Radiance, I welcome you, the readers into reading about the Jackbox Series.
These Party Packs are found on Steam. Why am I unlocking this ability? You can get together some of your people on a Discord channel on Obscure Radiance and play along! You do not need to pay any money to use this feature at all! All you need is a Discord Channel in Obscure Radiance, a browser or mobile phone device, your mics, and myself (to run the match!) Oh, and you don't need to buy these either, only the host needs to buy these, and I own all 3 Party Packs, with the 4th pack coming out in Fall, which I'll add to this list and buy when it comes out.
Click read more for the list of games and how to play them (in a way) as well as a YouTube link on videos I already have on certain game titles.
The Jackbox Party Pack 1
http://store.steampowered.com/app/331670/The_Jackbox_Party_Pack/
Featuring the following 5 titles:
YOU DON'T KNOW JACK (2015) (1-4 Players)
Not recommended to be done on a Stream due to the stream lag. This can be played however it won't be as enjoyable.
Answer witty questions that are worded funny and try to screw over your friends (or guildies) in a test of questions and superiority. Also can you find the "Wrong Answer of the Game" in the game? One of the answers in the game is a wrong answer associated with an episode's sponsor.
FIBBAGE XL (2-8 Players)
A witty bluffing game of lies where you enter answers associated with bizzare facts. You want to try to fool your opponents and make them pick your answer, while you try to find the actual answer (The Truth) in each question to score points! There are 3 rounds in this game.
DRAWFUL (3-8 Players)
In this wacky game of weird white palettes of drawing stuff, your goal is to draw what the game tells you to draw. Other players will try to guess on what you drew, and there are NO ERASERS. (which is the best part of this) so don't screw up on your drawing! There are 2 rounds in this game. There also is a Drawful 2 sequel, which works the same way, except you can draw with 2 colors, instead of one.

LIE SWATTER (1-100 Players)
You are presented with a fact and you are going to define if the fact that is presented is a true fact or a lie. Simply enter the answer in your mobile device or browser to select, and try to score the most correct answers correctly. There is no "rounds" (as far as I know).
WORD SPUD (2-8 Players)
In this game, you and your friends (or guildies) are tasked with making a word chain trying to make sense. After a word is entered, every player except the person who submitted the word gets to vote. If enough votes pass, the word stays and the author scores points based on the number of "yes" votes set. Player with the most votes wins.
The Jackbox Party Pack 2
http://store.steampowered.com/app/397460/The_Jackbox_Party_Pack_2/
Featuring the following 5 titles:
QUIPLASH XL (3-8 Players)
In this game, you are presented with a series of prompts. You are to make the funniest responses and don't tell your guildies about it! Prepare for a series of laughter in this game, where your creativity is what fuels the game, and not serious responses (unless you want to make it serious). This game has 3 rounds.
EARWAX (3-8 Players)
Hey, listen up folks! In this game, come up with a series of sounds that try to make you laugh. Do you have what it takes to annoy your opponents or try to give them a chuckle for what you are trying to tell them through sound? This game will be for you! This game has 3 rounds.
BIDIOTS (3-6 Players)
Do you feel stupid walking into an auction and you have no idea what you are buying? As an artist, you are trying to make sure they sell your painting for a lot, in this game where bidding on certain paintings will either make you rich... or an idiot!
The sequel to Drawful 1 & 2, essentially. This game has 2 rounds.
FIBBAGE 2 (2-8 Players)
The sequel of Fibbage XL! Except with different questions and a new feature called the Defibrillator. The Defibrillator removes all wrong answers except for 1 answer (a Player's Lie or their own lie) and the Truth! However, bare in mind, you only can use this feature once per game, only until Round 2! At Round 3 if you don't use it, you lose it.

BOMB CORP. (1-4 Players)
Note: Take notes wisely! You lose ~15 seconds extra time on bombs due to streaming delays (twitch/youtube required due to bandwidth I guess) unless I'm playing with you, pay attention to your communication to play this game well. Even if you don't see the bomb on screen, your notes/pages will still appear instantly on your device, so communicate wisely to succeed in this game!
One day you walk into an office with one goal in mind - getting through a boring routine day. But what happens if that day is filled with bombs in your office! That's right, in this game with support from your office mates (guildies/friends) you must try to solve a series of puzzles. Featuring bombs, filing, keypads and much more, this game is sure to end in an explosive ending! Be careful of what moves you do...
The Jackbox Party Pack 3
In Party Pack 3, you can have massive audiences on ALL 5 GAMES, feel free to join in if you want to. :)
http://store.steampowered.com/app/434170/The_Jackbox_Party_Pack_3/
Featuring the following 5 titles:
QUIPLASH 2 (3-8 Players)
The sequel to Quiplash XL! Except the only difference is that the audience can play along too, as well! And, the final round also has received an overhaul, challenging your minds of creativity and answers alike. Also, if you ever get bored, you can work and create your own episodes as well! Just work with your guildies / friends to make it happen! This game has 3 rounds, just like Quiplash XL.
TRIVIA MURDER PARTY (1-8 Players)
You enter a horror house in search of money - and the lives of your friends. A scary host locks you and your souls away. Try not to get killed. His only way for you to survive? Play through a horrifying game of trivia, in an attempt to live! If you get a question wrong, you have to fight for your life... in one of his killer minigames! Can you escape and be the lone survivor, while killing off your other guildies / friends? This game lasts for 10 questions (Round 1), and has 2 rounds total in the game, with the final round being really exciting.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zItuYoOIMUU
GUESSPIONAGE (2-8 Players)
Jackbox Games apparently invested in technology to allow people to answer some weird facts about people. In this game, your goal is to predict if how many people believe in the weird fact through a percentage. In the final round, you must select 3 answers that most people said on the question. This game lasts for 1 main round (if more then 6 players) or 2 main rounds (if less then 6 players), and has a final round as well.

TEE K.O. (3-8 Players)
I always was wondering something, do you know how to paint a T-Shirt in battle? This game will demonstrate your ability to battle each other in a series of artistic questions. Do you feel like you are ready to take on the challenge?
FAKIN' IT (3-6 Players)
Do you know how to fool your guildies / friends? Well, maybe you can in this awkward game about secrets and making sure you are not fooling anyone by faking your actions. Try to see if you have what it takes to do so!
The Jackbox Party Pack 4
Coming Fall 2017 - Confirmed - Fibbage 3 is in this party pack
