I'm going to guess that this game is better when played with live humans - that being said, there is a "campaign/story" mode, and - wow, what a mess. There's so much that's unclear, hard to control, or even understand. The game is basically Mario Party, on the DS, but with Crash Bandicoot (and friends). And, it mostly doesn't make much sense. Maybe I missed a tutorial? Or, to be fair, I was playing without having looked at or read the manual. There's lots of UI stuff (menus, not in-game) that felt sort of hit-miss as I fumbled around, and the games themselves. Well, lets say that the AI is either unfairly too good, or that I'm just terrible at it. The latter might be fair, but the difference in scores suggests that there might be something else going on.
