I've played many of these games. They are hilarious, to say the least.

It's the humour of the British version that I like the most, the surreal and obnoxious manner used to insult you is a winner for me.

Jack Attack's, Dis or Dat's, Gibberish Questions, and even the Pub Quiz questions were the highlight of an otherwise brilliant quiz game. It's also funnier than the US version.

Believe it or not, it's now an online game. You need FaceBook in order to play. you also need some quid in order to purchase tokens in order to play.

Love this game. I've been playing it on and off for two decades now. :D

I played a demo of the first (American) game a lot when it came out, but that's as far as I ever got.

Played it with my brother, it was a lot of fun (especially since there weren't many PC games you could play multiplayer on the same PC), but just never had the opportunity to get into any of the other games.

Downloaded it onto my IPad. It was enjoyable at first, but Cookie Masterson's humour is so bland and banal, so I deleted it. At least Paul Kaye gave Jack Cake life, I just prefer the old school British version.
