Yeah I do too. I've really liked the Party Planning minigame more than I expected to. Only thing I find annoying about it is the random layouts. I think it should be one balanced layout, but I understand how some people might find interest in trying all of the different layouts.I think that's a good thing.
Not sure yet, it will likely have a small influence like the Mansion minigame, I just like seeing how you can maximize the score, I don't expect it to be very difficult to get whatever benefit DPC is planning for it.Also, what do the points/rank get you?
I actually like the most of tests. I'm sure some people find it annoying on replays, but I just turn minigames off I don't want to do the tests. I liked both versions of the Math minigames, the science is a little less fun but still interesting, but yeah the English one always sucked. At least now you can actually type the words instead of clicking.The school tests are just silly and redundant at this point
