About this game
Mario Party Advance brings Mario and friends to Shroom City, where Bowser has scattered the minigames. Work through the single-player game boards to recover them. Once a minigame is unlocked, you can return to it and play again. Earn coins to unlock Professor E. Gadd's Gaddgets, a collection of interactive toys and tricks, including the Compatibility Meter for comparing friendships.
