Quick Review: Mario Party DS

{Most people don't take the time to read full length reviews, so that is why I write short ones that get straight to the point. These review are based only on my opinion, if you agree otherwise, feel free to comment}


Game: Mario Party DS

Platform: Well... duh

Publisher: Nintendo


Well, when I heard the party was coming to the DS, I leaped on it and wanted it. The game isn't all that great though. First, you can only play for ten turns, and the multi player is only for the DS download play. On flip side, the mini games were enjoyable enough to where you want to play the game. Unlike the last handheld Mario Party, the party boards are similar and game play is the same.

The main objective is to move around the board, collecting coins and trading them in for stars, but after every one has gone, you have to play a mini game. The story mode is the same as well, much like Mario Party 7. Bowser sends party invitations to the Mario crew to attend a Bowser mega bash to apologize for his actions when it is really a trap. He then shrinks the crew to ant size. Mario has to go to five large party boards to get bigger again.

I say that this game is intended for the casual gamer, not any body who expects a strategical game play. 3/5
