    It's not a bad game, but its no "Mario Party."

    It can have its moments, but a lack of action and exciting mini-games can make Muppet Party Cruise drag on like a bad party.

    For three decades pop culture has ingrained the voices of these central characters into our lives and to have them not sounding like expected is a disappointment.

    The value is placed in the sale price, not in the replay, and after two hours you’ll most likely be done with everything.
  6. Game Revolution

    Brings a fresh look to the party game scene with its unique brand of strategy and absence of plumbers, but it doesn’t have much of a life span. At $20, though, the frog, pig, chickens and things are better than you think.
  7. Gaming Age

    If it only comes off the shelf once in a while, or for small children, it's a much better deal than other party games out there going for $50.

    If there’s one game you buy this year, make sure it’s not this one. Don’t even bother picking it up in a shop to view the screens on the back.

    I have played every party game on every system since the original PlayStation came out. In my opinion Muppet Party Cruise is by far the best.I have played every party game on every system since the original PlayStation came out. In my opinion Muppet Party Cruise is by far the best. This is one of the most underrated games of all time.

    The various mini games are accessed by playing a mini game in which the players wander around the cruise ship opening doors. This is the weakest part of the game but still fun - most reviews of the game focus on this element. The mini games are all incredibly different from one another and vary in worth from pleasantly distracting to phenomenal.

    Good:
    Beach Speeders
    Crustacean Crush
    Cannon Fodder
    Outta Gas
    Pigsty Party
    Rhythm Mayhem
    Slippery When Wet
    Stage Fright
    Tug 'O War
    Food Fight
    Natural Disaster
    Scuba Driving

    GREAT:
    Dune Buggies
    Looney Unicycles
    Stinky Cheese
    Aeroplane Island
    Asteroid Belt
    Power Boatin'
    Sling Ball (AKA Precision Painter)
    Lights Out
    Fish Flingers
    Gumball Drops
    Spinball

    PHENOMENAL: Each deserves to be a stand alone game
    Bunsen's Burners
    Shuffle Chalk
    Speed Bingo
    Chemical Imbalance
    Short Circuit
    Too Cool
    Ticklin' The Ivories

    Any of the phenomenal mini-games would certainly have sold better than Muppet Party Cruise if they were sold alone. This one title has more creative and well balanced games in this one title than have appeared on X-Box arcade in the last two years.    … Full Review »
