Lie Swatter is a true-or-false guessing game featured in The Jackbox Party Pack and consists of three rounds. An app version of this game was created, but it quickly became outdated and did not receive an update after The Jackbox Party Pack 2 trailer, and has since been removed.
Gameplay[]
Rounds 1 and 2[]
Players will see seven facts each having their own category. For each fact, they need to select on their devices whether the fact is the truth or a lie (ex. 7 Up's name is a reference to the seven deadly sins is a lie). Players that are right get points and the fastest player to guess correctly gets bonus points. After all seven facts which are each shown "printed on" one of the seven flies, the current rankings are shown.
Round 3 (Final Round)[]
In this round, there is only one category that is applied to all the facts. At the end of the game, the top 3 players' scores are shown with the winning player being in first place, then the scoreboards are shown to see every player's scores one more time.
