Reintroduce yourself to this classic YDKJ sequel! All the fun of Volume 1, but with completely different questions, host, and smell! YOU DON’T KNOW JACK Volume 2 is the mutant offspring of the original award-winning, irreverent, fast-paced trivia game where you are a contestant on a manic game show.

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 27 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

[b]you don't know jack[/b] is the best trivia game series of all time. this one is from 1996, so it's pretty outdated by now and [b]it's always been us-centric[/b], so you'll either find it very challenging or very frustrating if you're from somewhere else. or a piece of cake because you know all the answers. it's your typical multiple choice deal, but there are [b]a ton of other question types over the series[/b], like dis or dat (or sometimes both) or gibberish question. you can play a game of [b]7 or 21 questions[/b], some question types only appear in the full run, but they both end with the [b]jack attack[/b]. there's a clue and you have to match things accordingly. [b]local multiplayer is available for up to 3 players[/b], you can even screw each other by buzzing in and forcing another player to answer. save for a few occasions way back when, I've always played it alone and always had a blast. it's all [b]presented as a tv show[/b] (there was an actual short-lived tv show as well, should be on youtube), there's some behind-the-scenes chatter at the beginning, fake commercials at the end (don't you dare skip them!), fake money to win and all that, and [b]the writing is fantastic[/b]. if it was a simple text-based thing, it'd still be excellent stuff, so much creativity, but [b]the voiceovers take it to a whole new level[/b]. lots of characters, one-off or recurring, great hosts, also one-off or recurring, and again, the whole thing is just great. [b]the attention to detail and variety elevates it even further.[/b] sure, if you play long enough, you'll see repeated questions (though I don't think the game will show them again until you've seen most of them), but there are a lot of different ways to introduce questions, a lot of remarks if you chose the wrong answer or hesitate to enter your name (in which case the host will give you one) or pick a category or answer, a relevant joke for most choices, right or wrong, and of course the commercials, man... the game also starts differently based on the time and date, so on certain holidays, early in the morning, late at night, on friday evening, and so on. and for answers that need typing, you can try some profanities, see what good they do. [b]there was nothing done to modernize the game[/b] for the steam release, so it runs in 640x480 (a very tiny window with a black background, you can set the .exe to run in that resolution or something closer and fill the screen more with the actual game), there's no steam overlay, there's only a single volume setting (it's fine in this case, though lowering it completely didn't let me raise it again until a restart) and controls aren't rebindable. each player gets a buzz hotkey scattered on the keyboard, the screw is the same for everybody, and if you play alone, no need to buzz and space works just fine for that too. I literally don't know jack and I've been having fun with the series since it first came out, most of it played alone. if you don't mind questions about older stuff (or that's your specialty) and can handle a lower resolution, definitely pick these up.

Die You don't know Jack - Reihe ist Teil meiner Kindheit sowie das beste Quiz-Spiel auf der Welt und das obwohl es vor der Jahrtausendwende herausgebracht wurde. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Quizspielen zeichnete sich You Don't Know Jack (YDKJ) schon damals durch seine Originalität aus und verzichtete dabei auf grafische Opulenz, überzeugte aber mit viel Wortwitz und cleveren Fragen - einfach Zeitlos. Vor allem in einer geselligen Runde der gewisse Spaß-Bringer :). Im Sale für unter 2,- Euro ist dieses Spiel mehr als geschenkt - totale Kaufempfehlung P.S.: Auf Steam ist leider nur die englische Version enthalten, deswegen hier ein Link für den deutschen Patch für Vol. 2: https://www.compiware-forum.de/downloads/file/706-you-don-t-know-jack-vol-2-german-patch/
Pretty dated now, esp with some of the questions/categories. However, still remains reasonably interesting and worth checking out to see how the game evolved over time.
Kindheitserinnerungen werden wieder wach! Ein witziges Quiz mit bissigen, sarkastischen, ironischen und zweideutigen Fragen. Kurz gesagt: Spaß und Unterhaltung pur!
Auch nach all den Jahren immer noch ein zeitloses Quizspiel, top of the art. Deutsch-Patch installieren empfohlen. compiware-forum .de/downloads/file/ 706-you-don-t-know-jack-vol-2-german-patch
mega mit deutsch Patch viel besser :)
[URL=https://steamcommunity.com/id/CharlieLima79/recommended/252730]After the man proved he knows Jack[/URL], he wanted to show that his knowing Jack was not a fluke. So, he sought out the second Jack and confronted him. This Jack looked a lot like the first Jack, sounded almost like him, and was just as snarky and snide. But unlike the first Jack, this second Jack seemed easier to figure out. In the man’s first attempt to show he knows this Jack, too, the man cut through the irreverence that came at him and triumphed effortlessly. Flushed with confidence, and admittedly a touch of unbecoming arrogance, the man cast the second Jack aside like a clingy ex-girlfriend though it was admittedly fun to prove that he knows Jacks! Just as he thought about taking on his backlog of challenges that he had accumulated, he heard the voice calling him again. “You have proven you know Jack, too,” the voice boomed. “But, have you met the third Jack?” The man replied, “With the second Jack, you had my curiosity, but now, you have my attention.” [URL= https://steamcommunity.com/id/CharlieLima79/recommended/259960]And with that, the man abandoned his backlog and went off to challenge the third Jack.[/URL]
[h1][b] Reseña de YOU DON'T KNOW JACK Vol. 2[/b][/h1] [h2]Resumen del Juego[/h2] YOU DON'T KNOW JACK Vol. 2 es ese “juego de estrategia” que consiste en la táctica milenaria de: pensar rápido, responder mejor y rezar para que el juego no te humille frente a tus amigos (o frente a ti mismo, porque sí, también se puede jugar en solitario como un campeón… o como alguien que no consiguió grupo). La propuesta es simple y efectiva: concurso de preguntas con comedia, ritmo de programa de TV y un tono burlón que no pide permiso para reírse de tu ignorancia. Como indie/casual, cumple: entras, juegas, te ríes (o te ardes), y sales con la autoestima en modo “préstamo familiar” (o sea, prestada y dañada). En primera impresión, se siente como un clásico de fiesta: ideal para multijugador local y grupo… solo que en Steam hoy lo está jugando 1 persona. Sí, UNO. Esto no es una comunidad: es una vigilia. [h2][b]Lo “JACK” y lo “NO TAN JACK”[/b][/h2] Lo Bueno: Humor y comedia integrados a las preguntas: el juego te entretiene incluso cuando fallas Perfecto para multijugador local y reuniones: el caos social está garantizado Formato casual: partidas rápidas, reglas claras, cero burocracia La “estrategia” real es leer, deducir y no panic-guess como si tu vida dependiera de ello Lo No Tan Bueno: 0 logros: Steam te mira y te dice “¿y tu dopamina de checklist?” Jugadores actuales: 1. Si buscabas ambiente online… felicidades, encontraste eco Recomendaciones totales: N/A. Básicamente: “no hay jurado, sólo sospechosos” En solitario se disfruta, pero pierde el chiste cruel de ver a otros fallar contigo [h2]Tabla de Evaluación[/h2] [table] [tr][th]Aspecto[/th][th]Puntuación (0-10)[/th][th]Comentario[/th][/tr] [tr][td]Jugabilidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Directa, fluida, y con ritmo de show: responde o muere (socialmente).[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Dificultad / IA[/td][td]6[/td][td]La dificultad viene de las preguntas y el timing, no de una IA “brillante”.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Contenido[/td][td]6[/td][td]Cumple para sesiones, pero depende mucho de tener grupo para brillar.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Gráficos / Video[/td][td]5[/td][td]Funcionales: más “presentación” que espectáculo visual.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Historia[/td][td]4[/td][td]No hay narrativa como tal: es concurso con actitud, no novela.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Ambientación[/td][td]7[/td][td]Se siente como programa de trivia con sarcasmo bien servido.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Efectos (VFX)[/td][td]5[/td][td]Lo justo para acompañar la broma; no esperes fuegos artificiales.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Música[/td][td]6[/td][td]Acompaña sin estorbar: cumple su trabajo y se va.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Voces[/td][td]7[/td][td]Clave para el humor: el “host” te sostiene el show y te remata cuando fallas.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Diversidad[/td][td]5[/td][td]Variedad por formato de preguntas y tonos, no por sistemas modernos o enfoque amplio.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rendimiento[/td][td]7[/td][td]Ligero y estable: no debería darte guerra para correr.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rejugabilidad[/td][td]6[/td][td]Sube con amigos; baja en solitario cuando ya te sabes la vibra del juego.[/td][/tr] [tr][td][b]Total Puntuaciones (Bueno)[/b][/td][td][b]5.9[/b][/td][td]Un clásico de trivia con comedia que funciona… pero no se siente imprescindible hoy.[/td][/tr] [/table] [h2]Conclusión (Bueno)[/h2] YOU DON'T KNOW JACK Vol. 2 es un juego casual/indie con una idea muy clara: hacerte reír mientras te hace quedar mal. Como “estrategia”, lo suyo es la agilidad mental y el manejo del pánico; como juego de fiesta, es donde realmente cobra sentido. El problema es el contexto: con 1 jugador activo y recomendaciones en N/A, esto se siente menos como “fenómeno social” y más como “reliquia divertida” esperando que la rescaten en una noche con amigos. En solitario se puede, sí, pero la magia de este tipo de juego es el bullying consensuado del grupo. Si lo quieres por la comedia y el formato de concurso, cumple. Si lo quieres por comunidad viva o por el ecosistema Steam (logros, actividad, etc.), aquí vienes a sufrir… y el juego se va a reír contigo, no de ti. Bueno, también de ti. [h3]Recomendación de Compra (Recomendado con reservas)[/h3] Puntuación Total: 5.9/10 Número de jugadores activos al momento de hacer esta review: 1 Descuento máximo registrado: -72% Veredicto: [i]Divertido para reuniones, flojo como “experiencia Steam” moderna[/i] Si tienes gente en el sillón (o al menos en la misma casa) y ganas de un concurso con humor ácido, adelante. Si lo vas a jugar solo esperando que el internet te abrace, mejor ve practicando respuestas… porque lo único que te va a acompañar es el host burlándose de tu cultura general.
Auch im Jahr 2025 noch gut spielbar und witzig.
Partyspiel für 1-3 Spieler - Trivial Pursuit - like. In Deutschland als Teil 1 erschienen. Es gibt einen inoffiziellen Deutsch Patch. Macht immer noch Spaß.
