Ahh, You Don't Know Jack. What can I say? It's honestly the best trivia game series I've ever played. Styling itself as "the show where high culture and pop culture COLLIDE!", YDKJ is a wacky and irreverent trivia game. Don't be turned off by "trivia game" though; this game makes you feel a total dumbass for missing a question.

Graphics: 9
It's a trivia game. There's really nothing to say about graphics. What graphics (images, animations) the game has are well-done.

Sound: 10
Sound design is amazing. The shining example is the guy who reads the questions, Cookie Masterson. His sarcastic, wisecracking style fits in perfectly with the general feel of irreverence. I will warn you though; if you're really easily-offended, some of Cookie's jokes will piss you off.

Gameplay: 10
The questions are brilliant. And any game that allows you to "screw your neighbor" (it's not as naughty as it sounds) gets a 10 from me.

Overall: 10
YDKJ is the consummate trivia party game. There are just too many things going for it, I can't give this version any less than a ten. It deserves it.

And if you think this game sucks, well then...
YOU DON'T KNOW JACK!
