Our Review of the Original Game
The original Super Mario Party Jamboree on the Nintendo Switch was highly praised, earning a 9/10 in our review. It was celebrated for its return to the classic formula of the Nintendo 64 entries, enhanced with unique and memorable board mechanics. The game offers a high level of customization, including the innovative Pro Rules that minimize luck and emphasize strategy. While the side offerings might not have much replay value, the core experience of partying with friends and family, whether locally or online, is exceptional and cements Super Mario Party Jamboree as a standout in the series.
