IGN has published a new Mario Party: Island Tour preview with a few more details about the game. For the latest information, check out the summary below.
– Hot-Air Hijinks: multiplayer quick play mode
– In this mode, you can set matches to end after 3, 5, or 7 wins
– Match Faker: like a memory-based card game
– Mini-game begins with the cards facing up and players have a brief amount of time to jot down notes on the touchscreen
– The cards then flip over and players need to identify the position of specific cards chosen at random
– Bumper Thumper: Bumper Cars in a small area
– Use short bursts from your thrusters to push each other out of the playing field to win
– As players bounce off the walls, they deteriorate until they disappear
– Color Correction: glide over and paint as many tiles as possible on a set surface area
– The player with the most painted tiles at the end wins
– Sinking Feeling: AR game; climb up a green pipe as it slowly sinks into a lava pit
– In the mini-game, more pieces drop from the top of the screen and can block off pathways
– The pace the pieces would fall from the top increased as the game goes on
