Super Mario Party Jamboree is the perfect summation of the series' recent journey. Drawing on recent experience as well as fan feedback, Nintendo packs the ultimate party game for Switch. An incredibly full-bodied content offering, thanks to hundreds of mini-games and a sea of different modes that know how to appeal as much to solo players as to lovers of multiplayer experiences. If you have never yet tried a chapter in the series, this is your best chance.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is great fun with friends, with a core experience that works incredibly well, but allows the flexibility to tailor it to your own preferences. There'll be laughter and perhaps more than a few four-letter words flying around in each match. The fact that it has so much beyond the core experience is just icing on the cake.

Of the Switch’s three Mario Party titles, Super Mario Party Jamboree not only provides the best value and the most content, but it’s a refinement of many of the series’ most iconic elements, with a variety of modes for every mood, skill level, and age group.

Super Mario Party Jamboree shows the franchise still has a lot of life to it. The boards and minigames work in harmony to deliver a good party mode. Having Party Planner Trek serve as the story mode is a great choice, as it provides a nice story while giving incentives to beat the mode. Some of the motion control modes didn’t hit as well, and playing online could lead to problems. These minor bumps don’t stop the party's momentum, as Super Mario Party Jamboree is an excellent addition to the Switch’s final years.

There’s something for everyone in this game. Even if you don’t like the randomness of regular Mario Party, you can always try out the Kooplathon or Rhythm Kitchen. The variety of modes combined with the mixture of old and new mini-games and boards makes this one of, if not the best, Mario Party ever made.

The best Mario Party experience a fan of the series will surely have, with many game modes available beyond the classic boards, plus a single-player mode for beginners getting used to the minigames. Super Mario Party Jamboree is definitely the ultimate Mario Party of all time.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is an excellent party game, offering game modes for up to 20 simultaneous players and 110 extremely varied and fun minigames, making it the perfect game to gather friends on the couch. Although some game modes may become repetitive, the attempt to bring different game modes, even considering a single-player mode, deserves recognition.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is overstuffed with unnecessary and uninteresting side content. While the main party mode feels like the strongest of the Nintendo Switch entries, a lack of variety in the minigames and only a few standouts make for a Mario Party that has a strong core, but not much else.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is a slam dunk for Nintendo. In one of the finest entries from the franchise to date, these new gimmicks feel refreshing, while the booming roster helps keep this party popping at all times.

While this isn’t the very best that the franchise has to offer, I sincerely appreciate the massive step up from Super Mario Party and the lessons learned from Superstars. If I had to rank this, I would put it at maybe number four on my list: higher than any of the WiiU, N64 or handheld entries, better than most of the Gamecube titles, but still falling behind 8, 6 and Superstars.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is chaotic fun for the whole family and is the best of what Mario Party has to offer. Unique minigames, fun maps, and the opportunity for a new experience every time make this an all-time Switch classic that everyone should check out.

The Jamboree mechanics and pro rules are both great new additions, and the series is probably at its most charming ever. There is however a distinct lack of outstanding minigames, with a lot of creativity being withheld for the passable online modes.

Mario Party Jamboree is one of the strongest titles the series has seen in a long time simply because it brings back everything that has made its best-selling games successful and offers you enough new modes, features, and content to keep it feeling fresh and exciting.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is a majestic title, the best in the series among those released on Switch, and a symbol of a Nintendo that wants to experiment and amaze again and again. We are probably facing the first chapter of a new course for the saga, a bit like Bowser's Fury and Super Mario Bros: Wonder were. The basis of a great future, if Nintendo is able to replicate itself.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is the game in the series that I've enjoyed the most since the first games on the N64. I think Nintendo Cube has mixed the right ingredients to come up with a well-balanced recipe. The selection of mini-games is excellent and the numerous modes offer a wide variety of playability. What's more, the whole thing is accessible to any player who wants to join in. Even in solo mode, I think a fan of the genre will find something to enjoy, thanks in part to the original approach to several modes. It's definitely the kind of game I'm going to want to take out with guests of all ages over the holidays to keep them entertained. In short, if you've been waiting for Mario Party to make a glorious comeback, this is the one to buy.

Super Mario Party Jamboree renews the familiar party formula without watering it down, and packs a lot of extra content on top: it's not just the wide selection of games and characters and the mix of retro and brand-new game boards that are key here, but also the small refinements to the gameplay and additional game modes such as online competitions and the movement games that make this Mario Party a showpiece package! And for those who consider themselves too lucky, there's pro mode now!
