Fish Upon a Star is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 5.

Overview[edit]

The opening shows five Cheep Cheeps landing on the edges of a platform, forming it into a star shape.

Players try to avoid falling off the platform as well as the Cheep Cheeps, which break segments of the platform, shortening it over time. Players can jump on, punch, or kick their opponents, either pushing them off or slowing them. The large red type may arrive to destroy several blocks on contact. The last player left wins, though if every player falls off, it is a draw.

The ending shows the winning player doing their animation as two rainbows appear.

Controls[edit]
