Title: Fun for the college types
Review: I can't say how good this game is in comparison with other Mario multiplayer games, but this one is great. If you are unfamilar with the format: Players roll dice and move around a board in search of stars, like a board game without a fixed finish line. (The game ends after a predetermined number of rounds.) After each round (in which each player moves once), there is a mini-game that involves every player. These are great for keeping things interesting: just rolling dice might get boring without the mini-games, and if you win a lot of them, you have a better chance of winning the big game. There are several ways, in fact, to earn stars, and it is sometimes surprising to find out who wins. Skill and chance are balanced, so that no one can coast to victory, but your little cousin can still give you a run for your money. Don't let the kiddie stuff fool you: this is a great game to play into the early morning hours (when you should be studying for your electromagnetics exam).
