Whilst the CPU characters make for adequate adversaries and there’s even different difficulty settings, the inclusion of a fully fledged multiplayer mode is always welcome. Still, there are plenty of good ideas that work really well, like the frenzied Coinathon mode where it’s necessary to collect coins as fast as possible. It’s pretty much the same as one of the boss mini-games and it feels like it didn’t necessarily need to be a mode. Rhythm Recital sees characters play a music track from the Mario titles and it involves pressing a button with the right timing. Also, whist it’s commendable to see the development team experiment with the modes, there are some like Rhythm Recital that feel too basic. It usually feels like the touch screen mini-games have a tendency to rely more on luck than actual skill and it makes it less enjoyable to play them. Unfortunately, whilst the mini-games that make use of a traditional control scheme tend to work well, the same can’t be said of most of those which make use of the touch screen. It’s certainly enjoyable to take on the likes of a giant Petey Piranha with the help of other characters. Part of what makes these mini-games and any other mini-game for that matter better, is the ability to recruit allies in certain modes. The quality of these boss battles is so good to the point that they wouldn’t look out of place if added to a Mario title. In these, characters work together to beat the boss and the one that deals the most damage wins. This makes it far better than only being given the choice to pick a path to stick to.įound within most modes are also entertaining mini-games that involve taking on familiar bosses from the Mario titles. But the best idea of modes such as Toad Scramble, is that it’s possible to move in any direction within the confines of the board.
In Mario Party: Star Rush it’s also possible to trade ten coins for one star. The idea (like with every Mario Party title) is to collect as many stars as possible to win. Surprisingly, the easiest mode to get into is one called Toad Scramble and it’s only possible to play it by using one of the dwarf sized Toads. Still, at least the few modes available are fun to play and manage to find new ways of engaging players. Although arguably it’s more of a double edged sword given that it naturally takes longer to level up later on making it rather tedious to unlock all the modes and other content. These items are mainly used to give characters extra moves to cover more board tiles and to make life difficult for the other characters.Īnother idea that works out fairly well is the fact that content is unlocked by leveling up with experience earned after completing a mini-game session. In most of the modes, there are box tiles that characters can land on which give them random items. Whilst it’s not exactly necessary to spend a large amount of time throwing a dice, there is always the need to consider using items. It even has a timer so those that like to take their time making a decision have to do so within a short amount of time. It’s such a simple concept and yet it manages to make what was a tedious process much more enjoyable. Now it’s possible for all players/CPU characters to take their turns at the same time. In previous iterations, it was was necessary to wait for each player or CPU character to finish the turn before being able to play. One of the more prominent changes is the way that players get to interact with the title itself. This latest entry manages to successfully introduce some new features that change how the title is played. It’s actually quite impressive to see how far the franchise has come for those of us old enough to remember spending whole afternoons playing the original round a friend’s house.
Mario party star rush all characters how to#
There ain’t no party like a Mario party because the crafty plumber knows how to keep people amused even thought the first title originally came out on the Nintendo 64. Yet, against all odds new titles are still coming out and the latest one comes in the form of Mario Party: Star Rush. You would have thought that the Mario Party was over by now.
