Game Description (via Wikipedia.org)
Mario Party 10 (Japanese: マリオパーティ10 Hepburn: Mario Pāti Ten?) is a 2015 party video game developed by Nd Cube and published by Nintendo for Wii U. It is the tenth main game in the Mario Party series, the fourteenth in the franchise, and the first game in the series for Wii U. It supports Amiibo figures. The game was released in Japan on March 12, 2015, in Europe and North America on March 20, 2015, and in Australia on March 21, 2015.
Mario Party 10 continues the tradition of the Mario Party series, in which four players, controlled by either human or CPU, compete against each other on a game board by participating in various minigames. Along with the standard competitive modes, Mario Party 10 introduces two new modes called Bowser Party and Amiibo Party.
The boards feature the same play style introduced in Mario Party 9, in which all four players travel across the board together in a car.
In Bowser Party, the fifth player controls Bowser using the Wii U GamePad. In this mode, the four main players are tasked with reaching the end of the board without losing all of their hearts whilst avoiding being caught by Bowser, who is trying to stop them. If Bowser catches up to the other players, a minigame takes place in which Bowser uses the GamePad's features to activate various devices, such as tilt controlled fire rods, pinball flippers, and breathing fire, whilst the other players attempt to take as little damage as possible. The players win if at least one player makes it to the end of the board with their hearts intact, but if all players are defeated, Bowser wins.
Amiibo Party involves up to four Amiibo characters playing on boards designed for those characters. Players that own an Amiibo are represented on the board by a three-dimensional figure, while players without one are represented by a two-dimensional cardboard cut out. This mode is similar in gameplay to the original Mario Party series through Mario Party DS.
Mario Party 10 received mixed reviews from critics, earning aggregate scores of 65.38% from GameRankings and 67/100 from Metacritic.[5][6] Samuel Claiborn of IGN gave it a 6.5/10, saying that "it...carries over some bad ideas from Mario Party 9 that continue to deflate the fun." Critics generally praised the style and look of Mario Party mode. Critics also generally liked the Amiibo Party mode; however, they did not like that an Amiibo had to be purchased along with the game to play the mode.
