Mario Party 7: Difference between revisions

Up to four players can enjoy the most of the game's modes; however, a special mode that this game introduces to the ''Mario Party'' series allows up to eight players to participate in a party. Players are required to share their controllers, and thus, controls are simplified in such modes. The [[Nintendo GameCube#Nintendo GameCube Microphone|microphone]], first introduced in this game's predecessor, ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', can also be used in certain modes. ''Mario Party 7'' requires 6 blocks on the Memory Card to save the game, and up to three game files can be saved.

![[File:Pagoda Peak Logo.png|link=Pagoda Peak|200px]]

|align=left|[[Pagoda Peak]] is a Chinese-themed board. An old Koopa, named [[Koopa Master]], lives at the top of the mountain. In Party Cruise, he sells a character who reaches the peak of the mountain a Star for the number of coins shown above his house (10, 20, 30, or 40). Each time someone buys a Star from him, the price of each additional Star goes up by ten coins (to a maximum of 40 coins; after that, it restarts to 10). In Solo Cruise, the first player to obtain 100 coins and reach Koopa Master at the peak to trade for the Star wins the game.

![[File:MP7 Neon Heights Logo.png|link=Neon Heights|200px]]

|align=left|[[Neon Heights]] is a USA-themed board. On this board there are three Treasure Chests, which appear in random spots. If a player reaches a chest, Koopa Kid offers to open it for 10 coins. One chest contains a Star, another 20 [[coin]]s, and the other one contains a [[Bob-omb]], which blasts the player back to Start. Once the Star has been purchased, three new chests appear. In Solo Cruise, the first player to obtain three Stars wins the game.

|When players land on this space, they receive three coins (five coins in Solo Cruise). On the last four turns event, the coins players receive may be tripled.

![[File:SpaceRed7.png]]

|When players land on this space, they lose three coins (five coins in Solo Cruise). On the last four turns event, the coins players lose may be tripled.

![[File:SpaceHappening7.png]]

|[[Event Space]]

|When the player lands on this space, an event happens. The event varies on location and board. The event may help or hinder the player or everyone.

|Toadsworth will appear and start a Mic minigame, where the player can bet coins and win double the amount back. If the Mic is turned off, the player will not be able to play the Mic minigame.  

![[File:SpaceDuel7.png]]

|When the player lands on this space, the player chooses who to duel with. After the opponent has been chosen, a Duel minigame starts and if the player wins, the loser gives away something to the winner, the prize given is decided by a dice block roll. There is a chance, however, that the dice block will show a red X, which means the losing player doesn't give something to the winner.

![[File:SpaceDonkey7.png]]

|When the player lands on this space, [[Donkey Kong]] appears and starts one of two minigame types. In a Single-Player DK minigame, the player who landed on his space gets a chance to win 20 coins, 30 coins, or even a Star, if the player beats Donkey Kong. In a Multiplayer DK minigame, everyone can collect bananas for coins. The events may help the player or everyone. In Solo Cruise, the chance to win a Star in a Single Player DK minigame is replaced by 10 coins.  

![[File:Space KoopaKid MP7.png]]

|Whenever someone lands on a Koopa Kid Space, Koopa Kid will appear and do things such as a Bowser Revolution or Bowser Shuffle. These spaces can be removed by tossing a Roadblock or Thrown Orb at them, or by using the [[Egg Orb]]. On the last four turns event, ten additional Koopa Kid Spaces may be placed on the board.   

![[File:SpaceBowser7.png]]

|When the player lands on this space, [[Bowser]] appears and starts one of two types of Bowser minigames that can usually hinder the player who lands on this space or everyone. In a Single Player Bowser minigame, the player needs to finish a minigame before time runs out. If the player wins, Bowser will not steal anything from the player. If the player loses, Bowser will either steal half of the player's coins, all of them, or a Star. In a Multiplayer Bowser minigame, everyone needs to get to the finish line in order to clear the minigame. Any losing players will have to forfeit half of their coins, all of them or a Star. In Team Battle, only one member of a team is required to reach the finish line in a Multiplayer Bowser minigame. Additionally, if a player lands on this space and does not have any coins, Bowser will give the player ten coins, and will not start a Bowser minigame.   

![[File:Space Mario MP7.png]]

|This space is created when players toss Thrown or Roadblock Orbs onto Blue or Red spaces. The effect of the space is dependent on the Orb tossed. Owners who land on their space with a Thrown Orb receive 5 coins (10 in Solo Cruise); Roadblock Orbs do not give owners any coins. Other players can overlap Character Spaces with their own Orbs. The character or team emblem represents the owner or owners of the space.

![[File:CoinBlockArea.png|64px]]

|Appearing only in Solo Cruise, this space gives players coins. It does not count towards the total dice roll. The coin amount given is either 5, 10 or 20 coins.

Orbs make a return from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', all of their mechanics intact, with the introduction of two new categories of Orbs. As in ''Mario Party 6'', Orbs can be obtained by buying them through [[Orb Shop]]s, passing through [[Orb Space]]s, or winning them through [[Green Space|Event Space]]s. Orbs are used to help assist a player's progress or to hinder opponents. There are five types of Orbs in the game, each with their own distinct category based on their mechanics. Two types of Orbs can be set up as traps: Thrown and Roadblock Orbs. They can be set only in Blue, Red, Character (barring Roadblock Character spaces), or Koopa Kid spaces.
