General Commentary and Game Overview
Remember Mario Party Play? It was a nice fangame of Mario Party with a lot of minigames but.. Not much besides that..
Now it's back with more contents than before!
You still have a lot of minigames (38 of them) and 2 bonus minigames!
But for the first time,you can play the board mode! (Even if some people wouldn't like it since it's based on the car system in MP9/MP10)
There is also a WarioWare mode with a lot of microgames as well!
Plus achievements and a jukebox,the game has a lot to offert!
Is all that content worth it?
 
Pros - Great use of the car system
- AI plays nicely in minigames
- A LOT of content
- Better minigames than the prequel
- WarioWare-mode is really fun
- Online rankings
- Achievements and unlockables
 
Cons - AI sometimes does dumb moves on the board
- Should be able to skip some dialogues/animations
- Not a big selection of characters
- Music sometimes loops awkwardly
- Some microgames are confusing at first
- NO MULTIPLAYER
 
Impressions
Gameplay
10 / 10
Everything plays fine!
The car system is very well done! There is new boards and dices as well with more options than MP9 and MP10 to customize even more your game! Also,each board is unique and made to not be too harsh to the player (It's really rare to loose 1/2 ministars and it's rare as well to loose 1/3 ministars)
All of the minigames are very well designed as well! Sometimes,the AI can be too hard or too weak but in the end,all of them are enjoyable!
The WarioWare can be confusing for some microgames the first time you play them but it plays nicely and is fun.
Finally,the bonus game are also very well-made and are challenging!
There is a lot to play and everything is done to be the best as possible so i'll give a perfect score because the game plays like a charm!
 
Graphics
9 / 10
All the graphics are sprites! They are very pretty and the board are also very great-looking! Some animations are a bit awkward but besides that,everything is perfect and good to the eye!
 
Sound
9 / 10
But is everything good to the ear as well? Well,the music is pretty neat! There isn't any music that i dislike and i even discovered some music that i never heard of that sounds really great! But the music loops sometimes awkwardly.. I guess it's the fault of Game Maker.. But still can be annoying sometimes..
 
Replay
10 / 10
Since there is so much to play,the replay is a perfect note as well! It takes a long time to unlock every minigames,every microgames and also getting all achievements as well! Or maybe you wanna replay a board you loved? Or getting a new record on the WarioWare mode? Or maybe you just wanna replay your favorite minigame? There is so much possibility that it's really unlikely that you will not come back to play it more :P
 
Final Words
10 / 10
For now,this is the best Mario Party fangame on the internet in my opinion. There is a lot to unlock,the board mode is very well-made (as well made as MP9/MP10 maybe even more?) the minigames are fun,the WarioWare fun is really addictive and i don't talk about all the achievements that can take a while to get! For me,this is as good as a real Mario Party game,even without a multiplayer mode!
