Retrieved April 26, 2023.</ref> The name is a play on "{{wp|Rhytidectomy|facelift}}." The minigame is based on the title screen of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', where the player can alter [[Mario's face]]. Additionally, the iteration in ''Mario Party'' includes a background with a parody title ''Super Bowser 64''.


==Overview==
==Introduction==
[[File:Mario Party 2 Face Lift.png|thumb|left|The ''Mario Party 2'' version, featuring [[Mario's face]]]]
In ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', Bowser's face appears on the screen and is altered. It shrinks to fit in the center, revealing the four splits for each player. Each character's name (in ''Mario Party'') or icon (in ''The Top 100'' and ''Superstars'') appears on each split screen to indicate their quarter. In the latter two games, Bowser can be heard laughing before his face is altered.
The minigame is named after "{{wp|Rhytidectomy|facelift}}", and is based specifically on the title screen of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Furthermore, in the ''Mario Party'' version only, the background texture parodies the ''Super Mario 64'' title screen and reads ''Super Bowser 64''. In ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', each player tries to distort [[Bowser]]'s facial features in split-screen gameplay. In ''Mario Party 2'', the face can be either [[Mario's face|that]] of [[Mario]] or of any of the other five player characters, being [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Yoshi]], [[Wario]], or [[Donkey Kong]], and their facial features change after a star flies above them. On [[Mini-Game Island]] in ''Mario Party'', the minigame requires at least 90 [[point]]s to clear.


''Mario Party'' features a variety from landing on a [[Bowser Space]], where players who do not score 90 points or more lose [[coin]]s, though if everyone does, only the player who landed on the Bowser Space loses Coins.  
In ''Mario Party 2'', a star flies around one of the characters' heads, then their face is altered. The same action above occurs.


In ''Mario Party Superstars'', Face-Lift appears only as a Bowser minigame, and the minimum requirement is lowered to 80 points; no one loses coins if everyone meets the criteria. However, in Free Play, it can be played as a standard 4-player minigame.
==Gameplay==
The objective of the minigame is to change the character's facial elements (nose, mouth, ears, etc.) to distorted positions as accurately as possible. The player who has the most accurate distorted positions wins.


In all versions except ''Mario Party Superstars'',<ref>{{cite|language=en|author=Nintendo Life|date=October 29, 2021|url=youtu.be/Xg-lOJzpEz0?t=256|timestamp=04:16|title=Luigi Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing (''Mario Party Superstars'')|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=November 11, 2021}}</ref> if a player does not perform any action, they earn a score of zero. The minigame ends in a draw if everyone scores zero.
In [[Mini-Game Island]], the player must score an accuracy of at least 90 [[point]]s to clear the minigame, regardless of the computer players' scores.


In ''Mario Party'', if multiple players win or, in the case of the Bowser variant, score more than 90, the Bowser faces associated with any losers shrink away as "LOSE" displays on their side. If every player scores either zero or fewer than 90 in the Bowser variant, every player loses. In ''Mario Party 2'', a rainbow-colored star moves around the face on any winning player's side. In the ''Mario Party: The Top 100'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'' versions, the Bowser face linked to any winning player sparkles.
In ''Mario Party'', this minigame also has a Bowser variation, triggered by landing on a [[Bowser Space]]. In this variation, players who do not score 90 points or more lose [[coin]]s. If everyone gets 90 points or more, the player who landed on the Bowser Space loses coins.


Face-Lift can be bought from the [[Mini-Game House]] in ''Mario Party'' for 400 coins or from [[Woody]] in ''Mario Party 2'' for 900 coins.
The minigame reappears in ''Mario Party 2'' as a Battle minigame. The faces that appear in ''Mario Party 2'' are those of the six playable characters ([[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Yoshi]], [[Wario]], and [[Donkey Kong]]). As this is a Battle minigame, this does not appear in the [[Mini-Game Coaster]]. Only Bowser's face is used in ''Mario Party'', ''The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars''.
 
In ''Mario Party Superstars'', this minigame is a 4-Player minigame. However, in Party mode, it is one of the possible minigames that can be played if the Bowser Minigame event is triggered when a player lands on a Bowser Space, and the players who do not score 80 points or more lose coins, but unlike in ''Mario Party'', if everyone scores 80 points or more, nobody loses coins. It never appears as an end-of-turn minigame.
 
In all games except ''Mario Party Superstars'',<ref>Nintendo Life (October 29, 2021). [https://youtu.be/Xg-lOJzpEz0?t=256 Luigi Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing (Mario Party Superstars)]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved November 11, 2021.</ref> if a player does not alter their face in any way from the start of the minigame, that player gets a score of zero. Additionally, the minigame ends in a draw if everyone scores zero.
 
==Ending==
[[File:Face Lift End MP1.png|thumb|The ending to Face Lift in ''Mario Party'']]
In ''Mario Party'', the camera zooms in on the winning border with coins around it except in the Bowser variant. In case of a tie or in case of multiple players scoring more than 90 in the Bowser variant, the winning faces stay in the borders while the losing face(s) shrink(s) away with the word "LOSE" in its/their border(s). In the case that all players score zero or less than 90 in the Bowser variant, all the faces shrink away with "LOSE."
 
In ''Mario Party 2'', a rainbow-colored star floats around the player(s) that had the most points. If a draw occurs, nothing will happen on the screen, though the Draw music will play.
 
In ''Mario Party: The Top 100'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'', the winner's/winners' face(s) sparkle(s).
