In The Jackbox Party Pack games from Party Pack 9 onwards, moderators have the ability to kick players from a game session using the moderation tool available at mod.jackbox.tv. To perform this action, the moderator must input the game’s room code. This feature allows moderators to select any player to remove, effectively preventing that player from rejoining the session. To enhance the effectiveness of this feature, it is advisable to utilize the “Require Twitch Login” setting, particularly when playing with participants on Twitch. This precaution helps to prevent kicked players from reentering the game under the same account identity. Although kicked players may still appear visually in the game interface, they are disconnected and unable to submit any new content.

It is important to note that as of now, there is no in-game option to mute individual players within the Jackbox games. If players are using voice or video chat via a platform such as Zoom or Discord, they must use that platform’s specific controls to manage audio and video permissions independently from the Jackbox game itself.

Summary:
– Kicking players: Use mod.jackbox.tv as a moderator with the game’s room code in Party Pack 9 and newer.
– Muting players: There is no in-game mute feature; you must use your external voice/video chat platform to manage audio.

This kicking feature is exclusive to Jackbox Party Packs 9 and later, while muting remains reliant on external communication tools across all versions.
