one and all!
"I'm Horace, your MC in Everybody 1-2-Switch! I'll help guide you through the games to make sure everyone has a fabulous time! Check out some of the fun we have in store for you..."
Everybody play. Everybody party!
Whatever the occasion, get the gang together and compete in a host of weird and wonderful minigames. Making friends with aliens perhaps? Maybe fill giant balloons with just the right amount of air, or step behind the counter of a manic ice cream parlour – all sorts of fun events await!
Victors in each minigame earn points for their team. In time-honoured fashion, the team with the most points gets to claim the glory.
