We're back with another MinnMax Spotlight! Janet Garcia brought Leo Vader to her hometown of Chicago, Illinois to tour her old stomping grounds AND visit Jackbox Games to learn more about the development of Jackbox Party Pack 12. Watch and share the video here - https://youtu.be/Aj53SRZn4VA

Our thanks to Jackbox Games for letting Janet and Leo invade their studio. MinnMax Spotlights aren't sponsored videos, but they did pay for the hotel and flight. If you enjoy the video and as a thank you to the developers, you're welcome to check out Trivia Murder Party 3 (on sale now!) or wishlist Jackbox Party Pack 12 and get ready for its release on October 15th. Jackbox also generously set up a promo code so you can get 15% off their games in their store until October 14th by using the promo code MINNMAX15. There's a $20 minimum purchase, eligible for all purchases on www.jackboxgames.com

Also, if you'd like to watch the extended 6.5-hour version of this MinnMax Spotlight (and our other Spotlights, travelogues, Pissy Zones, etc) - you can upgrade to the Backstage Pass tier here on Patreon. If you upgrade before Monday, September 28th I'll DM you on Patreon with a Steam code for Jackbox Party Pack 9. Thank you!

Once again, a huge thank you to everybody who came out to the MinnMax community meetup in Chicago! Couldn't do it without y'all.
