Monster Jaunt
This game has that classic Nintendo couch party vibe. I’ve played it with a few different groups of people, and it seems to work well with both frequent and casual gamers. The minigames have a good amount of variety to them, and there’s enough minigames to give it a plenty of replayability. One particularly nice touch is the adorable art of the hybrid creatures in the game. I’ve fallen in love with the panda/andaconda hybrid"pandaconda" and the fiery otter “magmotter”.

I would heartily recommend Monster Jaunt for anyone looking for a new party game.
The mini games give you a variety of challenges that mostly focus on skill and not pure chance. The board game is engaging and yet lightweight enough to be understood at a glance. Nearly the entire game allows for simultaneous play, so you don’t lose engagement while someone else it taking their turn. The Remote Play Together integration works wonderfully, as expected. Being able to play a local game across the country with little detriment is a huge bonus feature for a game like this.

Cheery Party
Cheery Party is an up to 4 players Party Game with lots of minigames with virtually infinite renewal, 4 game boards each with highly customizable rules, and several game modes!
REPLAYABILITY
Repetitiveness is a big issue with most party games, but not here!
Indeed, most of Cheery Party’s minigames are procedurally generated!
Many minigames also have several variants to stay fresh and enjoyable even after many playthroughs.
PARTY MODE
Take turns rolling physical dice to move through various game boards. Collect Kittysnacks and hire more than 20 different types of Kittykats to help you find as many Pawbadges as possible!
ROCKET MODE
If you only want to play minigames, then this mode is for you! This minigame-only mode lets you choose between 3 sub-modes: free-for-all, 2 versus 2, and 1 versus 3.
ACCESSIBILITY
Everyone, regardless of their age or skill, will have a great time playing Cheery Party! Most minigames are easy to play but hard to master and you can set different types of handicaps so that the best players don’t get an easy victory every time!
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK
Cheery Party’s original soundtrack is both fun and catchy, and because replayability is very important, every minigame has its own unique music, so be ready for a lot of tracks!
NO DLC OR IN-GAME PURCHASE
Our game studio believes in a strict no-DLC policy. All playable content will always be included in all our games, any additional content will be done with free updates. Cheery Party contains hundreds of in-game rewards and unlockable bonuses, no string attached.

Petoons Party
Competently made Mario Party-like, slightly marred by the wildly varying difficulty levels of mini games

Metal Heads
I’ve been helping out with testing the game (the online multiplayer) for well over a year now and i have seen a lot of improvements with it so far and it has come a long way since Pax Aus 2019.
The game itself is great fun online (yes there are issues but it is early access and what early access game doesn’t have issues) and even better when playing locally with friends. There are plenty of mini-games to play as well as a bored game mode that allows you to place items on the map to hinder others or yourself if you aren’t careful. The game has a solo Dev and Andy Gillion working on the music for the game.

The game was for a year on my steam-wishlist, and now it’s released. Yeah, it is buggy … but what else do you expect for a Early Access game? The minigames are really funny, and the game has many potential to be the next big party game. So buy it and support the developer behind the game, so that he can fulfill his vision of the game.
Furthermore he is active on Discord, in contrast to another game in this genre on steam, where the devs are lost, lol.

Pummel Party
you need friends to play this game and in turn you lose them cause everyone gets toxic, 10/10 would buy it again
– Real player with 97.8 hrs in game
I actually hate this game. My friends force me to play it. I have the most unbelievably bad luck and I’m never able to win any goblets. They bully me and verbally abuse me non-stop and it’s a horrible experience. I’ve been told I should be researched because of how bad my luck is. They force me to play 25 turn games and my mental health takes an extremely large blow every time we play. When it’s all over they say “same time tomorrow?” and I lay in bed and cry myself to sleep. This game has taken over my Discord and has made me no longer want to log on to my PC to play games. Will be going dark until this game is taken off of the Steam market. 10/10 would not recommend, lost all of my friends and sold my gaming PC.

Party Arena: Board Game Battler
Have friends? check
Want to crush them in mini games? double check
Want to then destroy their souls by killing them right before they get the final goblet and win? triple check
This game is infinite laughs when you play with friends. The minigames are really fun and pretty diverse. The board game part is pretty interesting, sorta like mario party but you get tons of items to attack the other people with. You can kill them and make them respawn at the start, or just push them to a different path, totally stopping them from going where they wanted to.

I have played the game while it was free to play for one day and i really liked it. I like the fact that you can use your gadgets to kill or move yourself or other player. For now the game is great. I hope in the future the creator can make more minigames, more board and more character in the game. I really enjoyed playing it!

Mega Monster Party - Multiplayer AirConsole
LOVE this game! Horror and Mario Party combined, PURE PERFECTION!!
– Real player with 15.2 hrs in game
Mega Monster Party is great to play with friends! I love the fact that you can use your phone as a controller, like this all your friends can join without having to buy expensive controllers. The input delay from phone to screen is non-existent which makes the experience very smooth and enjoyable. There are 40 minigames and 5 different & detailed maps, this makes the game very replayable. The minigames are somewhat easy to play against the AI but the challenge really comes when you play against (or with) your friends and this game is clearly meant to play in a multiplayer setting. If your friends aren’t around, playing with Parsec or Steam’s remote play works pretty well. I like that you can choose how many turns your game will have. Like this you can somewhat control the duration of your game which can be between 45 minutes and 3 hours for 1 map. I would go with something in the middle because you will not be able to see the full maps within 45 minutes. I adore the character design, all characters have their own animations and personality, I personally love Lupin (the werewolf) and Rowena (the witch). The price is great for what you get. Overall, I would recommend the game if you want to have a fun time with your friends or family and don’t want to spend a huge amount of money. The social aspect and accessibility is really what makes this game entertaining and worth giving it a try.

Party Panic
Party Panic is the best Mario Party like game on Steam for Linux. With more than 30 minigames, 4 Player local and online multiplayer, A drinking game and more it surely is a must have party game.
The game is playable with up to 4 players, You can mix Local and Online players, So you can play with 2 online 2 local or anyway you want. You can also enable bots, which are balanced pretty well, They offer a good challenge. There is also a built in drinking game you can apply to most gamemodes, where the worst performing player has to drink after each minigame. This ofcourse makes you perform even worse the next game.

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble!™
Rarely have I felt as compelled to write a review for a game as I have for this one. Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble (DHSGiT) offers a peculiar type of challenge. It’s a game of highs and lows. Whether or not you’ll find it fullfilling seems deeply personal in a way I’ve rarely encountered.
At first glance, DHSGiT appears quirky and charming - undeniably unique. A quick look at promotional material suggests 1920’s teenage rebels taking on their school and town with wit and verve. I was excited to install the game. Who wouldn’t love mouthing off to authority figures and getting into all kinds of period-appropriate debacles?

Can’t even remember why I have this game. Probably from one of those bundles with tons of indie games in them. Obviously, I didn’t expect much here (usually, those cheap indie games turn out to be a complete garbage) and launched the game just to see what did I paid for. But guess what? I’ve got hooked and was unable to stop playing until the very end. I’ve literally stopped playing bigger games and just sat there, playing this. Totally didn’t expect that.
So, what is this game? Well, that’s the funniest part. The thing is… it’s hard to tell. Just because it’s pretty much a unique experience. Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble! is designed after a board game, but it’s way more than that. It has a plot that involves the investigations and multiple endings, it has RPG elements (you can manage your “party” and level up your characters), it has mini-games and even some visual novel parts.
