Mario Party Advance

Mario Party Advance is a game in the Mario Party series for the Game Boy Advance. Play mini-games and Gaddgets as you travel through Party World. Unlike the console games it's more single-player oriented. It doesn't have a four-player mode within the game itself. Instead, the game allows players to play Duel Mini-games against other players, or download mini-games and Gaddgets to another GBA for friends to play. The game does however include a Bonus Board packaged with the game, which is a physical board game that uses the GBA game to let players play against each other in Gaddgets.
