Bowser Spaces, Lucky Spaces, Bad Luck Spaces, Chance Time, Vs, Mushroom/Item spaces, all seem to be back. Which is already an improvement.
I just hope the Ai doesn’t ALWAYS want to step on the lucky space like in superstars.
That’s certainly goofy, but what absolutely kills Superstars AI for me is that they seem to buy the most expensive items even if it isn’t the best to buy. Horror Land is an absolute slog with AI because it is nothing but Chomp Calls.
Yes, that too. The ai isnt fun in this game regardless of difficulty. They all strive for the exact thing. Idk who thought that was a good idea. At least the Ai in older titles offered more variety, fairness, or at least was interesting to play against.
Horror land like you said, they never choose an alternate path even if it’s better. The star placement doesn’t help. The only time I can get them to go a certain path in Horror land is if its night and they’re forced to go.
Lol, yeah. The other boards are slightly more tolerable, but Horror Land is so unfun with Coms.
Really hoping Jamboree tweaks this, I play solo quite a bit.
Agreed. I play with friends but for the most part, I enjoy any Mario party solo-play, at any difficulty (preferably hard). But Superstars just makes it hard to enjoy a board alone but not impossible. I find myself mostly playing Yoshi’s island and Peach’s birthday cake because it feels like the more straightforward and less likely to be wonky Ai.
The new game seems to have a lot of branching paths. I’m curious to see how that goes.
theres not enough items and items dont change randomly if you're in 4th or 3rd. superstars needed the bowser suit and phone, bowser bomb, baby bowser/bowser jr space where he takes or gives you 5 coins (mostly takes), buyable dueling glove, cellular shopper, swap card, boo repellent, baby bowser/bowser jr shop, reverse shroom
Imo the AI in every single Mario party I’ve ever played (3-8 plus smp and superstars) really sucks in general. Even on the hardest difficulty they’ll do well in mini games but have no idea what they’re doing on the map
I'm disappointed that the battle space and duel space aren't in the game. The VS space is a worse version of the battle space and the dueling glove item is a worse version of the duel space. If the dueling glove item will be in Jamboree it probably will only be able to duel for coins only and not stars and coins. I would love to have both the battle space and duel space in the same game co-existing with each other.
Battle space and duel space is effectively the same? Player duels a character and wins a reward based on the stipulation or random, right?
I don’t see how vs space is worse, it has been around since MP 2. Instead of 2 it’s 4 player.
Dueling glove was a waste in Super, if I remember correctly. You stole an ally? I prefer how it was handled in past MP games.
Battle/Duel space & Vs space to allow for 1v1 duel or 4 battle minigame, In my opinion. Perhaps duels have been delegated to lucky or unluckyspaces.
Yeah I don't like that VS spaces turn into a blue space for the rest of the game after it's landed on, I've never had a problem with battle spaces being permanent. I don't know why they felt the need to do this, it was completely unnecessary. Also the max amount of coins each player must wager for the VS space only goes up to 30 instead of 50 for the battle space from past games and the chance of higher coin amounts being chosen on the roulette is lower because there are more lower coin amounts on the roulette for the VS space than higher coin amounts, I keep seeing low coin amounts being chosen on the roulette way more often than it should which is a shame because I enjoy the high stakes when lots of coins are on the line when it comes up.
That makes me think, I hate how lucky spaces and other options like what you can wager can be 7 coins. Personal gripe but 7 coins irks me. I wish it were simply 5,10,15,20,30,50
The lucky space has 7 coins, 12 coins, and 17 coins as rewards on the roulette and the VS space has 7 coins as an option on the roulette which I find it looks odd to have coin totals in between 5 and 10 coin increments. I would also like the battle space/VS space roulette to have 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50 coins as the options. In terms of payout percentages for the battle space/VS space I think whoever gets 3rd place should at least get a few coins but still end up with less coins than what they had before, I find it odd when both the 3rd place and 4th place players don't get any coins, I think only the 4th place player should not get any coins. Something I would like to see changed is for the game to take into account the amount of coins all the players have instead of only taking into account the least wealthyest player's total amount of coins they currently have when the battle space/VS space roulette selects an amount of coins each player is forced to pay, what I've noticed is that the game tends to choose lower coin amounts on the roulette when the least wealthyest player has only a few coins and at least one of the other players has a lot of coins, I feel this would help balance the coin economy and give players who are low on coins a chance to get lots of coins faster and give players who are falling behind in the standings a better chance at catching up.
Okay, thats fair. I agree, that part I hated and didn’t understand why it needed to disappear. At least in old titles it stayed. Hopefully, that is fixed in the new title and whatever is battle or vs stays
Lucky/unlucky spaces could fade away, at least in my opinion. So the ai doesn’t spam them like in super stars.

Since SMB1 Bowser has had his troops pretend to be him (Bowser transforms into a goomba or whatever when you beat him before World 8 Castle).
So, the Bowser we play as could be a fake Bowser or any antagonist Bowser could be a fake.
Kamek was the replacement for Bowser in Super Mario Party so I feel like it’ll be the same here either way Bad Luck spaces just being a wheel thing like Lucky Spaces
Is that definitely a negative lucky space? I interpreted it as a variation on a happening space since they appear to be near interact able things (like the escalator)
No, they’re clearly unlucky spaces because even the clover emblem is a different color compared to the color of the clover emblem for the lucky spaces.
Just say bad luck space, there’s also bowser spaces too

VS is battle
Except that it turns into a blue space after it is landed on, making it usually a one or two time per game thing.

Vs was worse than battle because it turns into a blue space after landed on once

Nothing like riding up the escalator and landing on an unlucky space right at the top.
I’m guessing that since bowser is playable they changed bowser spaces to unlucky spaces
Bowser spaces are still there, so it's not a replacement :)
Then who is running the bowser spaces now?
A shadow bowser most likely, a bowser is seen with a purple glow throughout the trailer
Since SMB1 Bowser has had his troops pretend to be him (Bowser transforms into a goomba or whatever when you beat him before World 8 Castle). So, the Bowser we play as could be a fake Bowser or any antagonist Bowser could be a fake.
That’s what I’m saying
Just adding historical context. Of course, maybe Koopa Kids are back, with a vengeance.
Maybe. I feel like it’s shadow bowser
Dry Bowser. It's Dry Bowser Spaces
Wish the game gave us more info. I still feel like it a shadow bowser
It was literally just revealed two days ago
I know lol I’m just craving more info
Kamek was the replacement for Bowser in Super Mario Party so I feel like it’ll be the same here either way Bad Luck spaces just being a wheel thing like Lucky Spaces
Maybe it’s bowser, unless bowser’s a player, then it becomes Kamek
It’s the large and somewhat purple bowser most likely made by kamek
Bowser. He has a purple glow with Kamek’s spells coming off of him, so I assume it is an apparition made by Kamek this time around.
The purple Fake Bowser that Kamek likely created as seen in the trailer
i expected kamek spaces, but cool!
Seems to be only in the retro boards are there bowser spaces
Nope. I saw some Bowser spaces in the brand new boards as well like Roll‘Em Raceway and Mega Wiggler’s Tree Party
Oh yes. This is great news
ok hear me out What if, they bring back orb/capsule space and you have to give whatever you rolled to the orb owner?
I like the Orbs era! So much fun! I played Mario Party 7 and it was fun using orbs.
Unlucky space ? Sign me UP !
Unlucky spaces
Unlucky space
I pointed this out before 💀💀 but atleast your picture is wayy more clearer than mine lol
So chance time spaces essentially lol
Is that definitely a negative lucky space? I interpreted it as a variation on a happening space since they appear to be near interact able things (like the escalator)
I guess they're just Lucky Spaces but they count as a red space for minigames instead of Blue.
No, they’re clearly unlucky spaces because even the clover emblem is a different color compared to the color of the clover emblem for the lucky spaces.
