'''''Mario Party Advance''''' is the seventh game in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]], the tenth installment overall and the second handheld installment of the series, specifically for the [[Game Boy Advance]], after ''[[Mario Party-e]]'' for the [[e-Reader]]. The game revolves around either [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], or [[Yoshi]] travelling across [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]] to collect the [[minigame]]s and [[Gaddget]]s that fell from Party World, an area dedicated to partying high above the sky. After [[Bowser]] and [[Koopa Kid]] attack Party World, Toad tasks them with collecting everything that fell down. This can only be accomplished by helping out the city's citizens and stopping Bowser from exerting his influence. Shroom City can only be accessed with a single player; barring a few minigames, Gaddgets, and a physical [[Bonus Board]] that is played alongside the video game, the game does not focus on multiplayer and is more single-player oriented.

==Story==
==Story==
It is a normal day in Party World when the player first arrives there. [[Toad]] greets the player shortly before [[Bowser]], with [[Koopa Kid]] at his side, falls onto Toad. Bowser then disperses all of the mini-games and Gaddgets towards various parts of [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]]. When Bowser and Koopa Kid leave, and when the flattened Toad adjusts back to his normal form, Toad motivates the player to travel all over Shroom City, gather every mini-game and Gaddget, and restore peace to Party World.
It is a normal day in Party World when the player first arrives there. [[Toad]] is telling [[Mario]] about the game, when [[Bowser]] drops in and scatters all of the minigames and Gaddgets throughout [[Shroom City]]. Now Mario must go and retrieve them all by traveling all over Shroom City and restoring peace to Party World.

====Mini-Game Attack====
====Mini-Game Attack====
The player selects one of the four characters, and meets the host, Toad. Here, the player will play through fifteen mini-games in order to win coins. After Toad explains the instructions, a list of three minigames will appear, and the player can pick which one they think they can win. The minigames appear as they would in Free Play, but now have winning conditions akin to that Shroom City, but notably more difficult by increasing the criteria compared to Shroom City or making the computer players smarter. If a player loses a minigame, they will lose everything they accumulated up to this point. If they win five games, they can win 1,000 coins, ten games results in 10,000 coins, and 100,000 coins for all fifteen games. During the attack, they can either keep their total, or use their special items to help.

''Mario Party Advance'' offers fifty traditional minigames and sixty-one [[Gaddget]]s, which are less-involved and smaller games that often feature little interaction. During the story, all of the minigames have a specific goal to reach and a strict time limit. During Free Play, all of the minigames change so that they become based on beating a score set by the player, whether that includes gaining a large amount of points or completing a minigame in the shortest amount of time. Some minigames go on indefinitely until the player makes a mistake. Gaddgets, on the other hand, do not have any time limit and usually do not have a goal, instead letting the player toy with the Gaddgets however they want. Excluding a few of the multiplayer games, none of the Gaddgets can be lost, or at the very least, they can be reset back to their starting state.

''Mario Party Advance'' received wildly mixed reviews.

==References to other games==
*''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'': The backdrop in the minigame [[Drop 'Em]] is based on a scene of a level from this game.
*''[[Super Mario World]]'': An arrangement of the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario World)|Ground Theme]] is played on the [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]] results screen.
*''[[Super Mario 64]]'': Character designs from the original version of this game are still used in ''Mario Party Advance'', despite it being released after [[Super Mario 64 DS|the remake]]. This is evident in the appearances of [[King Bob-omb]] (still called Big Bob-omb), [[Dorrie]], [[Piranha Plant]], [[Amp]], [[Whomp]], [[Thwomp]], [[Hoot]], [[Mr. Blizzard]], and [[Ukiki]].
*''[[Mario Party 3]]'' / ''[[Mario Party 4]]'': Most of the minigame themes in ''Mario Party Advance'' are covers of minigame music from these games, and the passport theme is an arrangement of ''Mario Party 4''{{'}}s main menu theme. Also, the design for Cheep Cheeps introduced in ''Mario Party 4'' appears for the last time in the series; the next game, ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', retires it and the ''Super Mario 64'' enemy appearances in favor of the corresponding modern character designs.
