    You can Hardly even call this a “Game”!
    It’s more like a PSYCHIC WEAPON USED TO BRUTALLY DESTROY NOT ONLY YOUR EARS BUT ALSO YOUR **** BRAIN!!!!! MY FRIEND PLAYED IT FOR 30 MINUTES AND LOST 90% OF HIS BRAINCELLS, NOW HIS IN A COFFIN DEEP UNDERGROUND BECAUSE HIS BRAIN WAS DAMAGED TOO HEAVILY!!!!!!! But it has a pretty okay menu (except the Audio)

    There are bad games, but then there's this.
    This game is an egregious waste of plastic and discs.
    Family Party: 30 Great Games Obstacle Arcade has gone from a waste of 22 dollars at launch to a waste of 6 dollars today.
    There is no reason to purchase this game other than to loudly proclaim that you own the worst rated game on Metacritic.

    I could only play this game for about 20 minutes. It's complete garbage and I couldn't recommend this to anyone, because no one can enjoy this waste of money.

    This game really sucks. It's the worst Wii U game I have ever seen. You can't even get out of the starting menu if you don't have a Wii remote.

    Unbelievable how bad a game can be. I'd like to know what the developers were thinking when they put this garbage up for sale. "Everyone's gonna hate it", maybe... Unplayable.

    The only thing great about this game is the opening music. This is EASILY the worst party game I have ever played! The minigames are dull and bland, the graphics are terrible and the controls are SO BAD!!!!!! Seriously, why didn't they just use motion controls for the ghost minigame?! Avoid at all costs!

    This is the worst game I've ever seen. It bashes on the party formula and brings nothing rewarding or special. You can be damn sure I'll pass this, even at a garage sale. Never play this game. it's unoriginal garbage that doesn't even deserve a rating for how bad it is.

    Even as a child, the market this game tries to target (and very badly misses, I must add), the game is one of the worst I have ever played. I would rather sit and play Watch Paint Dry: The Game, the joke game released onto Steam shortly before April Fools Day 2016. Or, if I really had to, play one of Digital Homicide's low-quality games.

That puts into perspective just how bad this game is. To make matters worse, this game retails second-hand, on average, at £10 on eBay. Ten pounds that could be much better spent. It really isn't a surprise to me that this game won Worst Game Of 2013 from Screw Attack, and was rated by Official Nintendo Magazine as the Worst Wii U Game of 2013.
    Tl;Dr: This game sucks. Bad. This game makes Big Rigs look like a somewhat mediocre game.    … Expand

    Look Family Party, we didn't expect you to be better than Nintendo Land. All you had to do was at least...AT LEAST be better than the Rabbids party game and I'd forget you ever existed. Tell me, was even that too hard? This is the worst game on the Wii U and the worst party game ever made. Imagine Party Babyz was less of a failure than this. That's so abysmal, it's almost impressive. Almost.

    How unoriginal this game is and bland. The graphics are like gamecube graphics and the gameplay is so boring and limited it is like a GBA game! This game must have taken about 5 to 7 months.

    It's bound to suck if you have this as Christmas present and it's even worse if you enjoy this without reading the reviews from the users and critics. Thank god I have Nintendo Land as a Christmas present and that came with my Wii U and this game didn't and it's too hated to be packed in the Wii U.

    This game is garbage. I would rather eat my own **** than play another minute of this sorry excuse for a game. This game only has one purpose, torture. Force your arch nemesis to play this game, and he/she will drop down onto their knees and beg for you to put a bullet in their heads just to be free from the burden that is this game.

    When I saw the 11/100 review on Metacritic, I thought that there was no way a newer generation game can be that bad. That was, until I actually played it.

    The first problem is that the name is a complete lie. Family Party 30 Great Games. There are actually 35 games, and none off them are anything close to "great", or even "good". Secondly, the mini-games are extremely dull with visuals    When I saw the 11/100 review on Metacritic, I thought that there was no way a newer generation game can be that bad. That was, until I actually played it.

    The first problem is that the name is a complete lie. Family Party 30 Great Games. There are actually 35 games, and none off them are anything close to "great", or even "good". Secondly, the mini-games are extremely dull with visuals and graphics and rival Thrillville, a Play Station 2 game, which was still a better game, and it came out almost 10 years ago.

    And on top of that, the Wii U gamepad can only be used for 10 of the games. The rest, you need Wii remotes to use. So if you bought this game without having remotes from the previous console, sorry about your luck. It should NEVER be a problem that you can't play a game on a newer console because you don't have the controllers from the previous console.

    As for the mini-games, they are all either one of two things, 1. Extremely easy and not challenging at all, or 2. Completely broken and unplayable. This is the second biggest problem behind that controllers.

    And the last thing that is probably the most annoying part, is the game announcer and voice acting. It's absolutely horrid and annoying, especially when the voice announcer continuously talks while the game is going on.

    So, in conclusion, if you want to have a true family party game with great games, get Mario Party. Heck, get anything besides this game.    … Expand

    As clunky and poorly considered as its title, Family Party: 30 Great Games Obstacle Arcade is awful. Relying entirely on the shallow and repetitive waggle that should have died along with Wii, there's absolutely no reason to recommend this obnoxious, screaming, clattering monstrosity at all.
