[[Mario's Puzzle Party]] is a 4-player [[minigame]] found in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''; it later reappears as a Puzzle minigame in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''. A similar minigame in principle, [[Mario's Puzzle Party Pro]], can be unlocked after beating the [[Millennium Star]] in the [[Stardust Battle]]. | |||
== | ==Gameplay== | ||
The player has to break the colored blocks by connecting two or more blocks to get points. [[Brick Block|Brick]]s occasionally fall to obstruct the player (they can be broken by making combos around them, however), while [[Thwomp]]s occasionally drop and crush the blocks underneath it to half-size, which can aid the player in scoring combos. The player who reaches a certain amount of points (100) wins. If any player runs out of space in the grid to place the blocks, the player's game ends. | |||
The ''Mario Party DS'' version | The ''Mario Party DS'' version has a few changes to the minigame. In fact, it functions similarly to Mario's Puzzle Party Pro. The top screen reminds the player about the Thwomps, while the bottom screen shows the entire action. Also, when the player manages to clear the screen of blocks, then, the player is awarded a bonus 1,000 points. In addition to this, there are levels, which speed the game up the higher they are. The highest level one can get to is 99. Every 40 points the player gets translates to one Mario Party Point. | ||

* | * The portraits of six characters playable in Story Mode who appeared since the first ''[[Mario Party]]'' are re-used from ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. However, Daisy and Waluigi, who can only be used in Party Mode, are the only two characters whose portraits from this game are used, due to this game being their first appearance in the ''Mario Party'' series. | ||
* In the ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' version of the game, the icons for the characters are changed back to the icons from the N64 games. This includes Peach and Daisy, who revert to their pre-GameCube designs. Toad's icon is the only new one, replacing Donkey Kong's. | |||
