Mario Party: Star Rush is a party game for the Nintendo 3DS and the fourth handheld entry in the Mario Party series. Up to four players, controlled by humans or AI, compete across grid-like boards and a wide selection of minigames with the goal of collecting the most Stars. Unlike earlier games in the series, players roll dice and move around the boards simultaneously rather than taking turns, a change intended to make matches faster and better suited to portable play. It offers several modes, including a main mode in which players recruit additional characters as allies, and supports local multiplayer, including options that let several people play from a single copy of the game.
