'''Flip the Chimp''' is a 4-Player and Duel [[minigame]] that is found in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''.


==Introduction==
==Introduction==
The camera moves around to show a Ferris wheel ridden by [[Goomba]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]]s and a flying hot air balloon in the background. The [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' also plays but in carnival style. The camera then moves down to show a [[Ukiki]] hanging on a tree. A [[coconut]] falls on the Ukiki's head, making him scream and move down the tree. After that, the screen splits into four (two in the Duel version) sections, each containing a Ukiki hanging on a tree as well as a player standing beside it, and the minigame starts.
At the screen, the player will first see a Ferris wheel at the left and a [[Hot Air Balloon|hot air balloon]] in the sky at the right. Additionally, the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' overworld music can be heard, but in carnival style. The camera moves and shows the player the trees that appear, the sun also appears in the background, and there is the red finish line strapped on all the trees. Then the camera moves down, as the player sees an [[Ukiki]] hanging on a tree, additionally; there is a character standing near to the tree. Suddenly, a [[coconut]] falls down and hits the Ukiki; hurting the Ukiki as the Ukiki screams and forcefully moves down while hanging on the tree. After that, three slots appear on the screen as each slot contains an Ukiki hanging on a tree and the character the players picked as the minigame starts.

==Gameplay==
The players must hold the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] in a vertical position to play this minigame. The players control the Ukikis that are climbing the trees to the finish line marked by a red pennant banner. Coconuts fall down at either the left or the right side of the tree the Ukiki is climbing. The players must avoid them by switching their Ukikis to the other side of the trees. If a coconut hits a Ukiki's head, he moves forcefully down the tree, wasting some time to reach the finish line. The player who has their Ukiki reach the finish line first wins. It is possible to have multiple players win this minigame, and it is possible to tie in the Duel variant. If five minutes pass, the minigame ends in a tie.

The players must hold the [[Wii Remote]] in a vertical position to play this minigame. The players attempt to reach the finish line by controlling the Ukikis that are hanging on the tree. The players have to go up to win.
 
During the middle of the minigame, the coconuts fall down at either the left or right side of the tree the Ukiki is climbing on; these coconuts attempt to knock the players' Ukikis down on the tree they are climbing up. The players can avoid it by switching sides the Ukikis climb on the tree. If the coconut successfully hits the Ukiki, the Ukiki moves forcefully down on the tree; wasting some time to reach the finish line.
 
The player who has their Ukiki reach the finish line first during climbing wins.

The chimp of the winning player comes down, and Ukikis cheer as the victor does a winning pose.
The Ukiki comes down, and Ukikis cheer as winners do their winning animations. In the Duel variant, if both players make their Ukikis reach the finish line, the camera cuts straight to the players, who face the screen and do their losing animations. The latter also happens in the event of a tie in the 4-Player version (when all players' Ukikis do not reach the top in five minutes).
