To add to the enjoyment, you\u2019ll play as your Mii character and see them in action like never before!<\/p>\n<p>Wii Party\u00a0comes with\u00a013 different game modes to get to grips with. House Party mode turns your living room into a pivotal part of the game play. On top of the new level of interactivity introduced by the House Party mode, Wii Party also includes Pair Games and Party Games modes &#8211; both of which keep the varied challenges coming thick and fast as you cooperate or compete with fellow players.<\/p>\n<p>The House Party games include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hide \u2018n\u2019 Hunt (2-4 players) \u2013 one player hides the Wii Remote(s) somewhere in the room, whilst the other players wait outside. All the players are then invited back into the room to start the search. Their only clues are the sounds made by the Wii Remote(s).<\/li>\n<li>Animal Tracker (2-4 players) \u2013 players listen for the animal sounds coming out of the Wii Remote controllers and decide which one is the correct animal. Whoever picks up the -correct Wii Remote first is the winner.<\/li>\n<li>Time Bomb (2-4 players) &#8211; a game where the players pretend the Wii Remote is a bomb and must pass it around without shaking it.<\/li>\n<li>Word Bomb (2-4 players) \u2013 similar to Time Bomb, however, instead each player has up to 10 seconds to say a word from a given category. If the player doesn\u2019t say a relevant word and press the A Button in time, then the bomb explodes and it will be game over.<\/li>\n<li>Buddy Quiz (3-4 players) \u2013 one player chooses (or is randomly chosen) to be the \u2018Buddy\u2019 and then has to answer a set of questions. The rest of the players then have to predict how the \u2018Buddy\u2019 would have answered.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Party Games include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Board Game Island (1-4 players) &#8211; players take it in turns to roll the dice and advance along a single route towards the summit of the mountain. At the beginning of each turn, everyone plays a mini-game, and the order the players come in determines which bonus dice they receive. This is a board game like no other \u2013 expect the impossible.<\/li>\n<li>Globe Trot (1-4 players) \u2013 a board game that has you travelling the world to earn souvenir photos. The players must select one card at a time from the cards they have in their hands and advance the stated number of spaces towards the country they are aiming for. There is also a minigame before each turn, and based on the results, players win coins which they can use to buy movement cards and souvenir photos.<\/li>\n<li>Bingo (1-4 players) &#8211; each player receives a bingo card covered in Mii characters. If a \u201cMii Ball\u201d comes out of the bingo machine, you have to check off that Mii if it appears on your card, while if a \u201cMini-game Ball\u201d appears, you play a mini-game. The winner can check off any Mii of their choice. The winner is the first to make a line horizontally, vertically or diagonally.<\/li>\n<li>Swap Meet (1-4 players) \u2013 Have fun matching Mii characters wearing the same colours and playing minigames. The aim of the game is to make each row consist of Mii characters wearing the same colour.<\/li>\n<li>Spin Off (1-4 players) \u2013 each Mii takes a turn to spin the wheel by holding the A Button and flicking the Wii Remote. Depending on where the wheel stops, you could be in for some point-scoring medals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Pair Games include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Balance Boat (1-2 players) \u2013 this game involves working together to place Mii characters on a ship in perfect balance so that the ship does not tip left or right and none of the Mii characters fall into the sea. You clear the game if you manage to place 20 Mii characters on the ship.\u00a0The two players attempt a mini-game together, and if they manage to clear it, they will each have to place a Mii of the same size. However, if they fail to clear the mini-game, the Mii characters will be different sizes.<\/li>\n<li>Friend Connection (2 players) \u2013 two players complete a simple test of how in tune they are and play a mini-game together. The results are used to judge how close they are as friends. Do you think you\u2019re completely in tune with your friend\u2019s tastes and opinions? Play this dynamite little game to find out!<\/li>\n<li>Match-Up (1-2 players) \u2013 a take on the classic game of pairs. Match paired Mii characters in the park area, but be careful not to lose any hearts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The party invites have been sent and everything\u2019s set.
