Mario Party is an interactive board game. Players roll dice to move around a board and then compete in different mini-games to earn the chance to throw again or earn points. You play as Nintendo characters and take on challenges that make use of the specific hardware the game is played on.

Our accessibility examiner, Andy Robertson, first checked Mario Party (Series) accessibility 2 years ago.

Each board has its own difficulty level. Plus, if players are competing against the computer, they can set the difficulty of each one to create an experience that suits their play style.
