origin8's Mario Party (N64)

[February 20, 2008 10:24:46 PM]

Summary-

Mario Party 2 is a game designed for either multi-players or one player versus the computer. Within the game the players play within a board game looking platform. In the board game the players are required to hit a dice and walk the number of spaces the on the dice number. The goal of the game is to acquire the golden star and get as many coins as possible. Moreover the players also play battle games at the end of each round where the winner receives ten coins.

Gameplay-

My emotional state while playing Mari Party 2 was excitement because I was playing with multiple people and we were all trying to compete with each other. There were times in the game when I was also very nervous because I was afraid I was not going to be able to make it through the multi-player games. It would be easier to say that my emotional state kept changing through the entire game process because there were always different situations where I was either winning or losing.

I didn’t really like the characters within Mario Party 2 because there wasn’t much variety. The female character was only Peach and the rest were all male characters. I really wished that Toad or Toadette could have been some of the characters. My character was Peach. There were times when I would get frustrated with character because she wouldn’t cooperate with the actions I wanted her to do.

Even though the goal of the game was clear the outcomes were random. Most of the challenges that I faced were determined by the difficulty of the game and the strength of my opponent and the computer. The narrative of the game was pretty simple because it went from round one where all the players rolled the dice to a multi-player game and then back again to the board game.

Overall the game was really fun to play because it kept me interested and interconnected with the narrative and gameplay. My thoughts throughout most of the game were I want to win I have to win!
