    On their own they pose no real threat to players of average skill, but pit four such players against one another and watch the tension grow.

    Do not play this game alone or with one other person. It just isn't that fun when you don't have a minimum of three or the ideal four players for the game. This is a party game, and no one likes someone who likes to party alone.

    The implementation of the microphone peripheral is a huge misstep, but a limited number of players may still manage to eke some enjoyment out of its inclusion.

    Offers too much tedium and not nearly enough fun, mic or no mic.

    I have to admit this is a really good game when it comes to a family game night, but anything else is just a little boring. The star bank, the day and night system is absolutely creative if you think about it, but the boards could have been a bit bigger.… Expand

    What happened to Mario Party? The first game was decent, and the others (save for this) are mediocre. This one is pathetic. The lack of entertainment is what kills this title. There is nothing to do except to wait for your turn only to realize that you aren't going to have any fun when your turn finally does arrive. And the sound is terrible. And, as Craven M. said, the graphics jump off the screen. At least I wished they would have. This game looks terrible! There is no polish in the visuals whatsoever. Almost everything about this game is abysmal. Avoid.… Expand
