Mario Party is the central mode of ''Mario Party 10''. Similar to ''Mario Party 9'', players compete to get the most Mini Stars while traveling through the board on one vehicle, though this time, everyone starts with five Mini Stars. Characters move around in vehicles taking turns being the captain and rolling the [[Dice Block|dice]]. A brand new feature is that Bowser is locked in the GamePad with dice numbers. Each time a Dice Block is rolled, the lock of the corresponding number will be unlocked (there are six locks, one for each number on the die). Bowser will sometimes pound on his cell multiple times and look around in the GamePad. The player who unlocks the last lock loses half of their Mini Stars and Bowser will add [[Bowser Space]]s on the board. If Bowser is not free by the time the "Homestretch!" space is reached, he will be sealed away and [[Bowser Jr.|his son]] will add [[Bowser Jr. Space]]s instead. When in [[Chaos Castle]], a yellow [[Toad (species)|Toad]] takes Bowser's place and gives the player 20 Mini Stars for freeing him. Also, item shops return, this time in the form of [[Toad House]]s, where a Special Dice Block is given to all players.

Bowser Party is a new mode of gameplay featuring [[Bowser]]. One player controls Bowser using the GamePad, and up to four others use [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]s to play against him as Team [[Mario]]. Mini Stars are replaced by [[Heart (item)|Hearts]], and the goal of Bowser is to deplete all of the other players' six hearts, while the goal of the other players is to make it to the [[Star (Mario Party series)|Super Star]] at the end of the course with at least one heart between them. Each member of Team Mario rolls one Dice Block, while Bowser rolls four [[Bowser Dice Block]]s by default, though certain events can cause him to have more or less available. If he does not roll a high enough number to catch Team Mario, he is given the option to reroll, though the option is only given once. If Bowser catches up to Team Mario or if Team Mario is sent backwards to him, he forces them to play a randomly selected "Bowser Battle" minigame, where hearts are lost if the players are hit by his attacks. This can also happen if Team Mario cannot move away from Bowser because some players towards the end of the turn order are already eliminated, in which case Bowser will immediately initiate the Bowser Battle minigame selection as his turn begins. If Bowser depletes all of some players' hearts but other players are still standing, the eliminated players can receive Special Dice Blocks for the remaining teammates to use. If Bowser depletes all of the hearts from all four players, he wins. If Bowser fails to deplete a heart from any Team Mario player, all of the team members perform their victory animations while Bowser roars in anger. Normally, the minigames are fairly easy for Team Mario, but Bowser can also become Angry and can play harder minigames if at least one member of Team Mario survives a minigame with all of their hearts intact (or if he does not roll a high enough number again to catch Team Mario after a reroll), and can also become Furious and can select which minigame to play if "Big Bad Bowser Mode" is selected as a Homestretch! event.

At the Homestretches of [[Mushroom Park]] and [[Whimsical Waters]], Bowser Jr. appears with a roulette for Bowser to help him. In [[Chaos Castle]]'s Homestretch, Bowser instead fuses the Bowser Dice Blocks into the [[Super Bowser Dice Block]]. He will then take his turn after each member of Team Mario; if he rolls his own icon, Bowser will immediately catch up to Team Mario. If Team Mario makes it to the goal, they face a challenge against Bowser Jr., in which he summons a normal enemy and a boss, and has Bowser hide the Super Star with him or one of the enemies. The player who reached the goal then guesses who has the star. If they guess correctly, they win, but an incorrect guess results in them being knocked back several spaces. If Team Mario makes it to the goal after being knocked back twice, they automatically win.

In amiibo Party, players can scan a playable character's [[amiibo]] and play on small boards designed for that character with up to three other amiibo figurines. Players compete in a 10-turn game for the most stars, which can be bought by [[coin]]s, similar to the gameplay in previous ''Mario Party'' games prior to ''Mario Party 9''. CPUs or human players without amiibo are represented by cardboard cutouts instead of amiibo. Players who have amiibo can save and use tokens, which can affect gameplay. Players can also use character tokens to swap out a part of the board to the corresponding character board. Also, if the player has ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', they can scan their amiibo that has ''Mario Party 10'' data and receive a Dice Block that matches the token in Toad Scramble.  Players can earn and use certain items by landing on specific locations on the board, which allows them to play a short game that can grant them items.

During the Nintendo Treehouse Event at {{wp|E3 2014}}, it was claimed that [[Nabbit]] would appear to give Bowser extra dice blocks during Bowser Party. However, in the final game, only Bowser Jr. gives Bowser extra dice, and Nabbit appears to take Dice Blocks away from Bowser. Also in the E3 demo of ''Mario Party 10'', the characters used ''Mario Party 9'' winning and losing animations, as well as their voice clips and the announcer. The final version of the game does not feature an announcer, making it the only mainline ''Mario Party'' game with this distinction.

''Mario Party 10'' was developed by [[Nintendo Cube|NDcube]], the same development team who worked on ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]''. In addition, several staff members who previously developed ''Mario Party: Island Tour'' returned to develop ''Mario Party 10'', including director Yukio Umematsu and composer Rei Kondoh.

*On the international cover for the game, the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|Wii U GamePad]] that [[Bowser]] is holding is black, matching the color for the Wii U Deluxe Set. On the Japanese cover, however, the GamePad is white, matching the color used for the Wii U Basic Set.

*''[[Mario Party 6]]'': When determining the winner, the playable characters fly through an endless void until the winner is left, like what happens in this game, followed by voice clips that are also reused here.
