The best 6 games to play with friends while social-distancing – AppleTV 4 Jailbreak (appletv4jailbreak.com)

1

PUBG Mobile/COD Mobile/Fortnite

These are the obvious choices, in my eyes. Fortnite is especially perfect honestly, since you can play with friends regardless of whether they’re on Android, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, iPad, PC, PS4, Xbox One… You are literally spoilt for choice, and it pretty much guarantees your friends will have a capable device somewhere.

PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile are also fine choices, though of course are restricted to your mobile devices. Still, if you want to get together with friends and enjoy one another’s voices, this is the perfect option.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is launching this week, meaning you should both be looking at the Pocket Gamer review, and getting ready for your new life on the island.

Animal Crossing is a great game to play while cooped up at home, and you’ll be able to enjoy playing with up to eight other players on a single island online with your friends. No voice chat option, so you might need an alternative, but you should be excited about this one.

Jackbox Party Pack

This is the definitive multiplayer game. One person, just one person, needs to buy the Jackbox Party Pack, and then every other player can join them in either a web browser, or through their mobile phone.

Get everyone in a Skype call or on Discord, and boom, you’ve got a great multiplayer game with hours of fun to go through with you and friends. Gotta keep those bonds high even during these trying times!

UNO!

This is self-explanatory, right? It is UNO. UNO is a game people like, and it’s about as simple and accessible as games get…

UNO! is actually free to play on both Android and iOS, so you should be able to freely play with your friends. It does have in-app purchases, but of course you can decide for yourself what you need.

5

Minecraft

Minecraft! Again, it’s basically available on every platform, and has wide-reaching cross-platform play as of late-last year, when the PS4 version became the final version of the game to adopt the cross-platform play that we saw with Minecraft’s Bedrock update.

As of the Bedrock update, you can play on mobile devices with people on console, PC, or whatever, meaning you can also explore and create worlds together, talk with one another, and have adventures. That’s what multiplayer gaming is all about, right?

Words With Friends Classic

Words With Friends is basically the game which plays multiple Scrabble games at once, with your friends. Need I say more? It’s Scrabble. With anyone in the world. That’s the sales pitch, and it’s a good one, right?

But if Scrabble isn’t your speed, then tell your friends to download Chess With Friends, Hanging With Friends, Gems With Friends, Match With Friends… The Zynga With Friends series has always been great for keeping up with your grandparents,…
