Rio Multiplayer Party Game! is a video game based on the film Rio and was released on April 12, 2011 by THQ, made for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii. Its gameplay is similar to that of the Mario Party series. Players can choose from 6 of the series' main avian characters, namely Blu, Jewel, Rafael, Eva, Pedro, and Nico.
The Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 versions has three exclusive bonus mini-games included, as stated on the cover of the game.
Gameplay[]
Players can select which character they want to play as, from Blu, Jewel, Eva, Rafael, Pedro, or Nico. They can play 40 (43 in the Xbox 360 version) mini-games in the game (similar to the Mario Party series). Mini-game areas include the Smuggler's Den, Beach of Rio, Rainforest of Rio, Moose Lake, and the Carnival Parade. In story mode, the birds play through Moose Lake first. The game includes pop quizzes about Brazilian culture within the movie. It appears to happen after the movie, seeing as all characters do what they want to, and Nigel is powerless against numbers.
