You Don’t Know Jack to Make a Return

The beloved and irreverent game-show videogame You Don’t Know Jack could be making an encore appearance after a decade of silence.

If you don’t know You Don’t Know Jack, you might be forgiven considering its age: It was a series of game show games that boasted a melding of “high culture and pop culture” that ran on various platforms from 1995 until 2000. For those who owned and played it, it was a genuine blast.

Now, a whole new generation can be exposed to the thrill of Screwing (literally, Screwing) their opponents: Jack is coming back. Originally announced on the Giant Bomb podcast, the news was confirmed on the official YDKJ site.

Dear YDKJ Fans,

We told you so.

Love,
Jellyvision

P.S. More THQ/Jellyvision YDKJ partnership news to come. Stay tuned!

So it seems that the revival of the quiz game franchise will be done in partnership with THQ. I have heard worse ideas in my life.

Ooh, ooh, maybe they can have a crossover with Relic’s Warhammer 40k games? “You don’t know Jaccus, so die for the glory of the Imperium!”

… okay, maybe not.
