Played some alone, some with two family members and they weren't so fond of it.

I was more fond of it. I liked the minigames, really, even if the motion doesn't like "add" much. In some, I'd say it was more tiring than it should've been, but whatever. The boards I played were fine too. DK was interesting enough, Goomba was good for a straight path to the end, and Koopa was very fun.

My issue with this game is the aesthetic. It's lame. It feels like they went for a "realistic" tone, or at least an overly detailed "real" tone, and it sucks. Even Mario Party 9 got that right, but not this one. Fuck you, Mario Party 8, for being ugly.

Still better than 9, though. Like, it's good, just not a favorite, I suppose. Maybe I owe it more playtime, and if I give it that, I'll edit this review. For now, yeah.
