If you're looking for a relatively easy to start Mario Party clone for PC this is basically the best you're going to get right now. With that being said, I find it difficult to recommend to anyone who's looking to get a lot of bang for their buck.

The map selection has little variance between them, each differing by structure and a single gimmick (one has a serial killer who stalks the nearest player at the end of a turn, another has an action button that reverses the layout of the stage) but these gimmicks rarely affect gameplay in my experience. A lot of the mini-games suffer from some major flaw, whether it's the quite awful controls for the plane-flying mini-game, bad map design for the hot potato mini-game (you can basically just play cat and mouse around an obstacle) or the fact the cars in the karting mini-game control like hot garbage (its called "accelerate" but it stops you immediately when you let go and brings you to max speed instantly...), and most of them become kind of boring to replay later. Items are kind of unclear on how they work, especially the giftbox, which doesn't really make it clear that there are multiple "good" outcomes.

In addition to this, sometimes the maps just do not work properly with the game. I tried to use a boxing glove on someone to the space next to me and the boxing glove didn't hit because the space was very slightly raised due to the map's vertical height difference. Another time, the serial killer walked right past me and towards another player even though I was right next to him. There are also numerous misspellings, grammar and punctuation issues.

In my opinion, if you want to play a party game with your friends and you don't really care, this will probably last your group a bit if they also don't care too much and have more fun with each other than on the game. Otherwise, I would just set up NetPlay on Dolphin, because this lasted my group 3 games before everyone got permanently tired of it.

Small misc. comments and nitpicks:
- The board actually being a physical map that things other than players can move around freely in is actually a really cool concept and the eggplant bomb is an extremely fun item to use.
- Most of these mini-games are wholesale ripped off from other party games or just other games in general. I spy Tron and Bomberman alone in the promotional screenshots.
- The rulesets have customisable trophies at the end, but one condition is least mini-games lost, which is literally the same as most mini-games won except in extreme edge cases. If you're thinking "maybe I want to reward people for *losing* the most mini-games", you can just do "least mini-games won". For this reason, I have no idea why this rule exists.
- If you take a beehive out and use it in The Rift, you can hover it off a platform and build up speed, and then move it away and the selection cursor fires off. This doesn't break the max radius or make it act weird in any way, I just thought it was funny.
