Got a chance to try a round of each last night (ahead of having both Saturday and Sunday dedicated to the release with two groups of friends), and my initial thoughts:

Push the Button is an immediate classic, definitely top tier and in the running for my favorite in the series. A much better attempt at deduction games than Fakin' It, mixed with a lot of the stronger elements of the overall series.

Trivia Murder Party 2 is, of course, the first game but better; the mini-games seem more fun this time around, though I'll have to see how that plays out over time - I always hated how common the finger game was in the first version and hope this one manages to avoid that

I enjoy the concept of Role Models quite a bit, but some things are vague enough that it's hard to categorize people - but I was playing with a group that I don't know quite enough? I'll see how the next two nights go with my more regular friends

Joke Boat is in the vein of their other comedy games, which means I find it more stressful than anything. I think I prefer the structure of Mad Verse City and would always rather fall back on Quiplash than either? But I imagine it will work for those who prefer this particular brand of Jackbox

Dictionarium seems a bit too simplistic? I feel it specifically ends on a weak note with having to use the word in a sentence, which doesn't seem as funny as the initial construction of a definition
