| In their hand, each player has one "5" card, two "4" cards, two "3" cards, two "2" cards, and one "1" card. The players have five seconds to select a card. Players move their cursors back and forth until the timer reaches zero, at which they play their selected cards. The player who picks the card with the highest number earns one point. If more than one player picks the same card that is the highest, each player who does this earns one point. However, if everybody chooses a card of the same kind, nobody earns a point. Once a card is used, it is gone for the rest of the minigame. The first player to earn three points from having the highest card wins. | | Players must try to have the highest card for three rounds. Players move their cursors back and forth until the timer reaches zero, at which they play their selected card. In their hand, each player has one 5 card, two 4 cards, two 3 cards, two 2 cards, and one 1 card. Once a card is used, it is gone for the rest of the game. If more than one player has the same high card, all with the high card will score points. The first player to earn three points from having the high card wins. |

| If one card remains, the minigame ends, and the remaining players are ranked by how many points they have earned. If the remaining players' last cards are the same as each other's, nobody earns a point. If all the players do not reach three points by their last cards, they all lose and are ranked fourth place.
