 Best game for our four-year-old May 16, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is the first Wii game we've gotten that really engaged our 4-year-old boy. Ultimately up to now he could care less about our other Wii titles such as Cars, Carnival Games, and Playground Games.
Our boy loves that he can play a lot of this out of the box. He can choose his character and move him around the board. Because the game leverages the Wii controller quite well he can get into the mini-games. The best feature is that you can practice each mini-game as much as you want, which is good because some of them take a few tries. The variety of games alone satisfies our short attention span family quite well. There is a train map that just hooked him big-time, so if you have a boy between the ages of 3-8 it will likely hook your boy too.
The professional reviewers have to be taken with a grain of salt. The comic-book-guy reviewers with lame beards and questionable hygiene are not going to like a game that a 4-year-old does. One reviewer noted that much of the game is left to chance instead of skill. This is actually a big plus for parents with small kids. I am hyper-competitive so it's not my first instinct to let the kid (or Wookie) win. But with this game my little boy came in second place on his own, so between the game itself and the adjustable difficulty levels, my kid can kick my butt at a much younger age, which keeps me in check!
Very Fun Family and Friend Game! May 13, 2008
I have been playing this with my family a couple fo times a week, and it is a blast.
For those of you new to Mario Party, like I was, it is basically an animated board game style of play with mini games after each round. There are a few different boards to play on and tons of mini games that most any age can handle. My kindergartener has no problem competing against "normal" difficulty computer opponents, and easily beats the "easy" level in the mini games.
I fully recommend this for family entertainment. The only down side to it is the minimum number of turns is 10. For two players playing as a team against the computer, that means your game is going to be about 1 hour minimum. On the positive side, even my 6 year old does not get bored with it in that hour.
As an adult party game, it can be just as entertaining and very challanging. You will enjoy all the smack talking and strategy as you try to gather those stars. Just remember to never give up because you can spin around and win with just the right role or piece of candy.
Party time: Great, Alone time: Average May 12, 2008
If you are playing with 1 or more firends this is an A+ game. There is a lot of text that is involved and no quick way to by-pass it (even on fast message speed) or eliminate it. It would have been nice for Nintendo to have a disable option or actually have the guy talk to you as other platforms do. When on a single player mission the play is the same but just not as fun. After unlocking the 2 hidden characters and buying the extra games there is really no lasting appeal. Over all a very nice game that can be enjoyed alone or with friends. I hope the newer version will support online play as some of the games are going that way.
