A mixed, but mostly good and fun party game. Really dig the Cyberpunk/Y2K asthetic of the game. Definitely guaranteed to have fun playing with a group of 4, but the biggest thing holding the game back are the somewhat boring character designs and the minigame selection. Playing through the main tournament mode, it's a toss up whether you get a good variety of fun and clever minigames, or really bad and boring luck where you'll get 3-4 game in a row that consist of taking an orb to a designated scoring point, but maybe you'll be paired up with someone arbitrarily sometimes. It's always fascinating how easy a Mario Party type game would be, but for some reason it seems that no other developers have ever been able to crack what Nintendo and Hudson perfected. As it stands, Fuzion Frenzy is fun to pull out for a game night, but replayability will probably come down to what Minigames you play that night.

“Fusion Frenzy” wasn’t great in its day and time has beaten it down even further. There’s barely any replay value here either. You can see all the game has to offer in less than an hour. Sure, it’s meant to be played with friends, but I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting to stick with this in a party setting. There’s nothing here that’s visually appealing either. Literally the only reason anyone remembers “Fusion Frenzy” and that it got a sequel on Xbox 360 was because it was “Bill Gates’ favorite game”. I never took that sentiment seriously, but if it was true I hope Gates has acquired better taste over the years.
