One of the worst party games i have ever played. Mario party is already a good part luck, but at least in (most) of those games there is player skill expression in minigames, board decisions, item usage, etc. Orange Juice has none of that. You roll your silly little dice and thats it. Over and over again until you either win or lose half hour later. Still kinda funny tho imo
100% orange juice is one of the few games where I am completely drained of all happiness when I play it. it's funny when playing ironically, but, even when playing in this way, the complete and utter boredom that this game instils completely overtakes any jokes regarding it and just makes a completely miserable experience
this boredom is a result of how awful this game is as a party game. party games are fun because of the interactions between players, with most party games having elements of randomness, but also elements of strategy to make the game not feel too unfair. party games thrive off of laughing and screaming at the random but still trying during the strategy moments: mario party is THE party game series because it (sometimes) strikes this balance extremely well (specifically in mario party 3 which is peak)
100% orange juice completely puts all of its chips on randomness and leaves the tiniest crumbs of strategy. one rolls a dice during their turn and moves the given amount of spaces, and one chooses which direction to move. and that concludes almost all of the strategy of the game. the only other bits of strategy are the insanely bare and destitute battles, which demonstrate another major issue with this game
this game is one of the most boring and gruelling processes that I've ever endured. this game is literally just 'roll, choose direction', with there being essentially nothing else of value. battles are insanely simple and trivial, with them feeling awful because there's essentially no strategy or planning necessary because of how bare they are in terms of mechanics and difficulty
this game is just awful. I can barely stand it with friends while playing it ironically, it's just so insufferable. I really hate this boring and abhorrent excuse for a 'game' so much

Party game of many yester-years, back when Discord was at its infancy. Compared to some games in the genre, this one is greatly RNG-determined, kind of like Snakes and Ladders, if the snakes are your friends trying to use the cards they have on hand to kill you at range.
Even worse, those friends may or may not have any real reason to bully you, and so this is a good game to play for when you actually have friends to bully in good sport.
Single Player, the AI cheats and is not as fun, because everything is RNG-rigged to their favor and to your great detriment.

I come back to this game every now and then, just to see the best character to ever grace my PC, Marie Poppo. Only, I return this time to see that her mother has been added as well, a great start to 2024.
This game is fun if you have people to play it with. You can join random lobbies but I just think it is more fun with people you know.
You don't get access to all characters and aside from 2 that will rotate every week, you have to buy the other characters. You can play this game PvE or PvP which is good. The art is cute, the soundtrack is okay.
