'We're kind of friendslop': CEO of Jackbox Games sees the link between party games and this new trend but doesn't think it's necessarily 'a negative moniker'

The term "friendslop" may be new, but the idea of friends engaging in social games has been around for centuries. Jackbox Games CEO Mike Bilder shared that the company sees this connection, explaining that their games are "kind of friendslop in a way." The games focus on casual fun with friends, drawing ridiculous images and making each other laugh.

Bilder emphasized that they take no issue with the term "friendslop" and don't consider it negative. Instead, they see it as encouraging, as it reflects the popularity of their genre. While some "friendslop" games may be hastily created, the spirit of these games remains the same - bringing people together for a good laugh and social interaction.
