Casey Gibson of Nintendo World Report gave ''Super Mario Party'' an 8/10,<ref>Gibson, Casey.

While Gibson has noted that the time can feel "drawn out" while playing with computer players, it was noted that the pacing can feel better than played with friends. Gibson has additionally praised the assortment of the 80 minigames where they are "actually a ton of fun and are pulled off very well", citing [[Sizzling Stakes]] as one of the favorite minigames played. The most jarring criticism from Gibson has been directed towards the online play and its features and options (which she considers restrictive), such as its rotation of 10 minigames, where she summarizes, "Overall, although the mode is fun, it won't likely see much playtime as you repeat the same few games over and over. It's a tease of what could be, but ultimately fails to add much value to the overall package." Colette from My Nintendo News gave the game an 8/10, echoing sentiments from Gibson, citing the previously released ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as disappointing, as well as stating "the less said about ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' (2013), the better", while praising ''Super Mario Party'' in comparison, saying it "changes the sour flow into something much sweeter."<ref>Colette.
