Super Mario Party attempts to return to the roots of the franchise, but ends up being a mere shadow of its predecessors, lacking any of the heart, sou, and chaotic fun of the best of the series.

Super Mario Party offers an ultimate party game with a wide selection of modes. Even though some of them don't really go in-depth, you will not get bored any time soon - no matter whether you're playing with four players, two players or even just by yourself. Despite some small issues we can say that Super Mario Party is pretty super... Mario... Party.

A shame as this party was one I was glad to be invited to- I just didn’t feel the desire to stick around for too long.

Super Mario Party manages to return to the roots of the series while sprinkling in some new features and a wealth of diverse content that all but guarantees there will be something for everyone to enjoy. Minigames are usually simple and easy to grasp, while still being enduring.

"Super Mario Party" skilfully continues the series of successes and offers a lot of new game food. The Joy-Cons of the Switch are ideally integrated into the game mechanics, so that the individual mini-games go well by the hand. Even though the individual modes leave nothing to be desired, it quickly becomes clear that Super Mario Party still unfolds its true greatness in multiplayer mode. With Super Mario Party, you've made the leap to the Nintendo Switch and guaranteed long-lasting party fun with friends.

Super Mario Party isn’t quite in the class of Mario Party 2, but it’s definitely a return to form for the series and should be a joy to play for any newcomer or fan of the long-running series.

There is nothing revolutionary in Super Mario Party, but the series remains the king of party games. This is an ideal gift for the whole family and those who are tired of sitting and playing alone in a room.

Super Mario Party is a return to what made it great. While it doesn't do much to radically innovate the series, Nintendo has proven that sometimes simplicity is best left untouched. This is a party game that will bring back nostalgic memories, ruin friendships, and provide a delightful time for whatever sized party you may bring.

If you have three friends visiting and Super Mario Party is the centre of your gathering, you will be guaranteed a great time. This entry is a positive step for the series and a fitting entry for the Switch, especially when it comes to the fantastic local multiplayer. The array of game modes, the traditional boards, and of course, the mini-games, will have you challenging your friends for precious hours of pure memorable joy!

Super Mario Party is as much fun as you make it. I have played a lot of online with friends and local with family and it has been a hoot.

Super Mario Party is not a game to understand its true worth by only playing it for a few hours. the passing of time will determine how memorable it's gonna be in the minds of casual players. but from my own experience, if you were looking for a game in this genre don't doubt that you should buy this game, you won't regret your decision!

After the last to games crashed and burned, Super Mario Party is a much-needed return to form. With all-new mini-games, great presentation value, and plenty of different modes to mess around with, this is an essential game for anyone hosting a party with friends or family. Players of all ages will find something to like here.

The online play is severely lacking and disappointing. But many hours of fun are to be had with this game and even more so with friends.

Super Mario Party is nothing near perfect. its board games are flawed and there is just not enough content for the survival river mode. But the super fun addictive gameplay of the games makes for all of these problems and gets you a fun party or family gathering to enjoy.

Super Mario Party brings back the classic formula, and while there are some features that haven't made the return, great new additions like Partner Party and River Survival make this one of the best Mario Party games in at least a decade.

Boards design is oversimplified and disappointing, with that being said it is still one of the best party games on the switch even after you collect all gems you would still revisit the minigames every once in while.

Super Mario Party injects new life into the series' old board game formula by adding a bunch of fun extra modes such as River Survival, Sound Stage and Toad's Rec Room. Online is unfortunately limited to a few rotating games — a big missed opportunity especially with the debut of Nintendo's new online service. This means you sadly can't play a full board game with other folks away from your couch or immediate vicinity. If you're good with plotting and scheming against friends and family offline, however, this is arguably the best Mario Party game in the franchise's history.
