The Mario Party-ish board game movement can be frustrating for a "strategy" type player (dice rolls) but helps to even things out among different skilled players and as I mentioned before, combat is extremely simple but it has made it so that all the kids are able to play, something that the skill required in the Mario Party mini-games usually frustrates my youngest and has kept us all playing a couple of hours a night for about a week (games can be set to 999 'weeks' of 7 turns each) (or less!). Take all their Money, Take their Weapon/Shield/Magic item, Take some of their Equipment, Take ownership of one of their towns, Scribble on their face with a marker(!), Cut their hair (Including such (random) outcomes as 'Baldy', 'Monk Ring' or (my fav!) 'Poo Hair'!!), Change their Name (be careful in renaming your wife less than flatteringly - Poo Hair will soon be yours!), or you can be a coward and Let Them Off. Player, the winner gets several options on how to treat the loser. Very good "Family" game if your family is mature enought to handle the competitive aspect for example when you fight Player vs. There's a lot of luck involved so that even my 6 year old sometimes gets ahead of my wife and I when we play. Combat is simplistic - basically a glorified version of Paper, Rock, Scissors not even as deep as Pokemon battles - but that are quick and really secondary to the coin/town/item collecting aspect.
Sweet party game, Mario Party meets Pokemon.
