Disney's Party, known in Japan as Disney no Magical Park for GameCube and Mickey no Pocket Resort for Game Boy Advance, is a party video game released by Hudson Soft for the Nintendo GameCube and by Jupiter for the Game Boy Advance. The game is much like the games of the Mario Party series, where players compete in minigames to win the game.
Gameplay[]
The gameplay in this game is different from other games of its kind. In starting the game, there are only up to 4 different choices. The players then vote on these choices, the more votes a game receiving increasing the chance of the spinner landing on it. Whatever game the spinner lands on is then played. Similar to the popular Mario Party series, players play on a game board, which features an item shop stocked with items for use on the board's spaces. In order to win the game, players must advance and land on the flag where it says destination. Players will have to play another minigame to win the park. The player who wins the most parks will advance to the boss stage. After the player completes the boss, they win the game and the credits will appear.
Parks[]
Each park is a separate game board with its own theme, with each one being its own island. The exact layout of the parks differ in both versions. All the parks are available on the GameCube version; however, Shopping Center, Nature Island, and Cartoon Park are not present in the Game Boy Advance version. Magical Square is present in both versions; however, in the Game Boy Advance version, it consists purely of a short walk followed by a boss fight.
