Features
The robos are pretty cool, and their "snowball" animations (which unfortunately, only work in space) are pretty cool. Unfortunately, we can't destroy other robos like at the Marvel Superhero Takeover, which was pretty fun. Speaking of robos, the space "game" is lame. All you do is throw snowballs at meteors and microbots (who look like the Test Bots, which I think is pretty cool). And they don't even do anything! If you get hit by an asteroid, nothing happens. If a microbot blasts you, nothing happens. And if you don't destroy them and they reach the island, guess what? NOTHING HAPPENS. The game feels urgent, but there's really no urgency. There's no penalty if you get hit, or if you don't get hit by an asteroid. And guess what? The final battle, which has once again been hyped, is terrible as well. Protobot does NOTHING. The only attack that can do anything to you is his missiles, but that only has an aesthetic effect. The fights in space are insanely boring and they could've been made a lot better by, oh, I don't know, actually having effects when you mess up?
As for mascots, you can meet Gary with a new background. Well, not exactly. It's Gary 3000, Gary 2000 years in the future. I like Gary a lot, but isn't he overused by now? We still have half a year of parties left to go and Gary already visited twice. He IS my favorite mascot and all, but good gravy.
Score: 3/5
Decorations
The decorations are pretty cool - well, what there is, exactly. Apparently in the future, the Plaza, Forest, Cove, Mine Shack, Dojo Courtyard, Ski Village, Stadium, and Ski Hill all got EXPLODED BY PROTOBOT MWAAHAHAHA destroyed. Either that or they disappeared for no reason. Either way works.
Anyway, to the actual decorations. The designs are all pretty cool and future-y and stuff... yeah. That's really all I have to say.
Score: 4/5
Items
Club Penguin did a great job with the items at this party, I really can't complain.
Okay I lied, I can complain. The alien items are just... I dunno. They just don't feel right. *shudder* Also, the Asteroid Head has the stupid add-on beak that I hate so much. But other than that, everything is great. I do wonder one thing though - why in the world is the Cybernetic Arm a body item?
Score: 4/5
Music
The music at this party is really good. All the tracks are brand new, and Club Penguin did a great job. The robotic singer in the background bothers me though... my favorite song is definitely Strange Galaxy. I can't get enough of it!
Score: 4/5
Non-Member Friendliness
Looks like Club Penguin gave more features to non-members in 2000 years. Non-members can get half of the items from the party catalog, visit all the rooms, and collect three of the four non-catalog items. Unfortunately, they can't use the robos.
Score: 4/5
Final Score
While the Future Party isn't the greatest party, it's certainly not the worst. While the decorations, items, and music are great, the lack of rooms in the future and the bland nature of the "game" make it seem to fall flat.
Final Score: 4/5
What did you think of the Future Party? Would you like to see it back next year?
Chill is out, peace!
