You Don't Know Jack

You might say the developers at Jellyvision do know Jack. They've been creating irreverent trivia, writing good (and bad) comedy, and recording hours and hours of smart-ass dialogue for their You Don't Know Jack video game series since 1995. 1995! That's 17 years of...well, a lot of pointlessness. And with the company's recent Facebook release, it's not looking to stop the fart jokes anytime soon.

We asked Jellyvision to stop screwing around for a few minutes to dig through its long history of work for some interesting numbers and stats. Here's what they told us:

 

32

The total number of You Don't Know Jack products released (including PC, console, web, foreign-language editions, books, a tabletop game, an ABC television show, an audio CD, Roku, and iPhone/iPad)


10,150 

Number of lifetime questions across all YDKJ games (and growing)


71,000

Total lines of dialogue, custom to specific questions, plus 6,500 generic lines


3,247

Total fart sound effects used


598

Unique fart sound effects


217

121

Number of Britney Spears references
