Super Mario Party Jamboree is the latest entry in the Mario Party series to come to the Nintendo Switch .

Players compete to win the most stars, whether they earn them the honest way or steal them off their competitors after a lucky dice roll.

Super Mario Party Jamboree: The Basics Getting the party started In Super Mario Party Jamboree, you’ll roll a dice to move spaces across a virtual game board. Each player takes turns doing this, trying to get the closest to a star placed on the board.
After everyone has had a turn, a mini-game will start — involving anything from working with a partner to steer a cart, to spotting the odd one out in a series of pictures. If you win a mini-game, you’ll earn more coins, which can be used to purchase a star once you reach the correct space. The winner is the player who has the most stars at the end of the game.
I found the board game segment to be excellent in this version of Mario Party. The minimum amount of turns you can set is 10, which takes around 90 minutes .
