Roomerang

Are you here to make friends...or WIN?

**Roomerang** is the first game to be announced for The Jackbox Party Pack 9, having been announced on February 18, 2022. The game of responding to prompts, role-playing, and whatever level of competition you bring to the table. Players in a reality TV show world are encouraged to answer prompts through their game personas, to gain status and avoid elimination.

## Gameplay

Players start out with 5 points and will answer the prompts given to them. They are also given a character description (Ex: Likes Smoothies) Throughout each round, the other players (and audience) will vote on which answers they liked best; each player gets a point if their answer is voted.

The players then vote on who to eliminate and explain why (Ex: Tulips taste weird in smoothies), and the player with the most votes is eliminated. That player gets a few seconds to type in or say some parting words before the door slams on them. However, this player gets Roomeranged back in with a vowel letter swapped in their name, a clothing item, and a new character description (Ex: BROOKE gets changed to BReOKE with the description "Has Never Worn Shoes"). The next round continues with the newly-swapped player.

This goes on for five rounds. The first round is an introduction round, where each player answers a question about themselves. The second round is a connections round, where each player is paired up with another and must answer a question that relates to both. The third round is a quickie round, which is done anonymously. The fourth round is a firestarter round, where each player must pick another player and blame them for something. During the final round, the host will ask the group to vote for the player they think should win and the player they think shouldn't win! Players give their reasons, and they're all asked what the best conclusion for the round would be. After that, the points are tallied up and the winner is chosen! That person gets to make a victory speech before they're shown the door and the game ends.

[SPOKEN] Well look who it is...
Oh baby can you Roomerang? (I'll betcha can)
Impress us all and do your thang
When you win it then the bells will clang (Clang-y clang)
But first you gotta Roomerang
Can you get on the floor?
Can you show us some more
Before we show you the door?
Can you join in the scene?
Whether you're grey or you're green
Be super sweet or go mean
Oh baby can you Roomerang? (I'll betcha can)
Impress us all and do your thang
When you win it then the bells will clang (Clang-y clang)
But first you gotta Roomerang
(I'm Roomerangin') Try on your new face
(You're Roomerangin') Get in there, claim your space
(We're Roomerangin') You'll walk away with the race
(I'm Roomerangin') Can you find a new friend
(You're Roomerangin') Who'll be there 'til the end
(We're Roomerangin') If you can't just pretend
When you start make sure you share what's in your heart
That's how you Roomerang
You Roomerang
Be a louse, you're gettin' tossed out of the house
With a boom and bang
That's what I sang
(Ding Dong) Who's coming in again?
(Ding Dong) Another chance
(Ding Dong) (Let me in) Maybe you'll win again
(Ding Dong) (Let me in) Just join the dance
Oh baby can you Roomerang?
Impress us all and do your thang
Win it all, the bells will clang (Clang-y clang)
But first you gotta Roomerang
Keep your cool in the kitchen, by the pool
As you Roomerang
You Roomerang
Cruel attack, you're voted out but now you're back
In seconds flat
But with a hat
Day and night, another hug another fight
As we Roomerang
We Roomerang
Roomerang
You Roomerang
Roomerang
We Roomerang
Roomerang
Let's Roomerang! x2
