![]() ![]() There’s very little in the way of a challenge most of the time, which is disappointing.Įvery board you complete – regardless if you win or not – awards you with Mario Party points. It even goes as far as using “…hope for the best” in it’s description. One in particular – called “Blooming Nuisance” – sees you picking a plant, watering it and hoping it doesn’t turn into a piranha plant and eat you. A lot of the mini-games are also based on pure luck too. ![]() Tilting the system to take pictures or move around an on screen ball ended up with me being overly frustrated at how horribly implemented and unresponsive it was, even after re-calibrating my system. ![]() I had a lot of trouble with the mini-games that made use of the 3DS’s built in gyro. There’s a good variety to the mini-games and most of them work well, but some of them just don’t. These can range from extra dice rolls, items, stars and magic cards. They offer differing – board specific – rewards based on whichever position you finish within them. The minigames are the bread and butter of Mario Party: Island Tour. No matter what board you’re playing on you’ll always be playing them. If you’ve got an hour to kill, then a board such as Perilous Palace Path is your best bet. Each board has an estimated completion time, so if you’ve got fifteen minutes to spare then Banzai Bill’s Mountain is probably the board for you. On the other hand a board such as Star-Crossed Skyway isn’t about getting to the end goal first, but rather about collecting as many stars as you can along the way through mini-games and by reaching checkpoints on the board before your opponents. Boards such as Rocket Race and Banzai Bill’s Mountain are short and simple – get to the end of the board first. There are seven different boards to play on and each is unique in their own way as they have different objectives. You pick a character from the Mario series and attempt to get to the end goal of the board before your opponents through dice rolls. Mario Party: Island Tour is – like previous games – based around the idea of a board game. ![]()
