The first interactive board game based on Jim Henson's Muppets characters, Cruise Party sets sail on PlayStation 2 with 30 mini-games and the following six playable characters: Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Animal, Gonzo, and Pepe the King Prawn. Up to four players alternate turns while moving their Muppet characters along nautical themed boards, with the colored spaces dictating the types of mini-games played, including competitive matches, two-on-two events, and more. Mini-game types range from puzzles and sports variants to rhythm-based contests and more, with titles such as Disco Dancing, Shuffle Chalk, and Bunsen's Burners. Players also have the option to skip the board game entirely to play the mini-games by themselves. In addition to the six playable characters, Cruise Party features cameos from more than ten other Muppets and includes 30 authentic voices from the award-winning series. Developer Mass Media's previous credits in the genre include Shrek: Super Party and Pac-Man Fever.
