A '''minigame''' (sometimes formatted as '''mini-game''') is a short game that may reward [[coin]]s, [[List of items|items]], or higher scores. However, some main games may require the completion of a minigame to access a new area or gain a [[key]]. The most common form of minigame is from the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]].

The [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] has many types of minigames. Most award ten coins, while some award items. In ''[[Mario Party]]'', a few minigames can cause a player to lose coins, although this system was changed in later ''Mario Party'' games. Since ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', players can now practice minigames before trying them out for real. Some minigames involve collecting coins freely, and any coins players collect are added to their coin totals afterwards; players technically cannot lose unless they do not get any coins. Some minigames can last as long as ten, five, four, three, or two minutes, but a timer does not appear until 30 or 60 seconds are left.

====1-Player minigames====

Originally featured in ''Mario Party'', '''1-Player minigames''' are minigames played alone. These minigames are usually accessed by landing on the [[Minigame Space]]. If the player fails, they lose five coins; if the player wins, they win 10 coins, unless it is a different kind of minigame, such as [[Whack-a-Plant]], where the player cannot win or lose.

1-Player minigames reappear in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', where they are called '''Challenge minigames'''. A Challenge minigame is triggered when a player lands on a [[Challenge Space]]. If the player wins, they get to spin the wheel to throw a dart to collect the number of coins on the wedge the dart lands on. However, if the player loses, they cannot throw the dart and their turn ends. The three Challenge minigames are [[Pour to Score]], [[Stampede (minigame)|Stampede]], and [[Fruit Picker]].

====1-vs.-3 minigames====

[[File:MP3 Coconut Conkers.png|170px|thumb|[[Luigi]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[Waluigi]] attempt to hit [[Wario]] with a [[coconut]] in [[Coconut Conk]], a 1-vs.-3 minigame.]]

'''1-vs.-3 minigames''' are minigames that challenge a single player against the other three. They typically come in three forms: the team players trying to take down or hinder the solo player, the solo player trying to take down or hinder the other three players, or both the solo and team players trying to achieve a similar goal, with the solo player usually getting some form of advantage. In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', these minigames are called '''1-vs.-Rivals minigames'''.

====2-vs.-2 minigames====

[[File:Burnstile.png|thumb|170px|left|[[Burnstile]], a 2-vs.-2 minigame from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'']]

'''2-vs.-2 minigames''' are minigames that have the player paired up with another player. Players often need to work together and cooperate to beat these minigames. ''Mario Party 9'' is the only ''Mario Party'' game (not counting ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'') not to feature this category of minigames, but [[Shell Soccer]] qualifies as a 2-vs.-2 minigame.

====4-Player minigames====

'''4-Player minigames''' are minigames that pit all four players against each other. In ''[[Mario Party]]'', the two games [[Key-pa-Way]] and [[Running of the Bulb]] require the four players to work together, and if they succeed, they all get coins. However, this concept has not been used in any other ''Mario Party'' game, and instead, there are now only versus games; however, games in which players simply have to achieve an objective to win and are not actually competing with each other (allowing each player to win), such as [[Granite Getaway]] and [[Trash Landing]], do exist.

 

This system has remained unchanged since the first ''Mario Party''; however, in ''Mario Party 9'', 4-Player minigames are renamed '''Free-for-All minigames''', as this title features the option of only two or three characters (human-controlled or otherwise) competing in the Party and Minigame modes. ''[[Super Mario Party]]'' reverts the category to its original name.

{{redirect|Battle Game|the mode in the [[Super Mario All-Stars]] version of [[Super Mario Bros. 3]]|[[Battle Game (Super Mario All-Stars)]]}}

'''Battle minigames''' (also known as '''Battle Games''') are minigames that take coins from all the players, then give them back in different quantities based on the results. The number of coins taken can go from 10 (later five) to 50 coins per player. Unlike in other minigames, the rank order is important—a player can still win some coins for being in second place. Like the 4-Player minigames, most minigames are evenly matched between the four players. From ''Mario Party 2'' until ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', these minigames are unique from the other 4-Player minigames. However, in all other games where Battle minigames can happen, the minigame played is simply one of the regular 4-Player minigames.

 

In ''Mario Party 2'', ''Mario Party 3'', ''Mario Party 4'', and ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', Battle minigames are played when a player lands on a [[Battle Space]]. From ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' until ''Mario Party DS'', Battle minigames are not triggered for landing on any particular space (except for landing on a Battle Space in ''[[Mario Party 6]]''{{'}}s [[Mario Party 6#Solo Mode Boards|Solo Mode]]) but instead played at the end of a turn, like a normal minigame. Here, players are able to vote on which Battle minigame they want to play, out of a list of three Battle minigames, except in ''Mario Party 8'' and ''Mario Party DS'', in which minigames are shown on a wheel, and one is randomly selected. The minigame that gets the most votes after each player has voted is the one played. If there is a tie in the votes between two minigames, the minigame with no votes is played instead. Starting in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', Battle Spaces return as [[VS Space]]s, landing on these spaces now provide the player who landed on it three coins, however they otherwise function identically, though the Battle minigames themselves are now referred to as '''VS minigames''' instead.

 

 

Starting in ''Mario Party 6'', the scoring was changed slightly:

**'''3rd:''' +2 Mini Stars

**'''4th:''' −10 Mini Stars; −5 Mini Stars for tie; −3 for three-way tie

Also, if a player lands on a [[Bowser Space]], the players can be forced into battling for half of each player's Mini Stars. However, [[Bowser]] keeps any leftover Mini Stars.

{|class="wikitable"

|'''1st'''||75%||50%

|'''2nd'''||25%||30%

|'''3rd'''||0%||20%

|'''4th'''||-||0%

In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', players can engage in a battle minigame in three different ways.

*After the mini-boss is defeated, a regular battle minigame can be triggered by landing on a [[Minigame Space]]. Upon the player hitting the minigame box and having the box show two hammers, a Hammer Bro comes and takes five Mini Stars from each player.

**In a 4-Player Battle:

**In a 3-Player Battle:

*If someone lands on a [[Bowser Jr. Space]] while playing Mario Party mode, one of the four options in the roulette is for all players to battle for 10 Mini Stars. [[Bowser Jr.]] distributes the Mini Stars depending on how well each player does.

|'''1st'''||100%||75%||60%

|'''3rd'''||-||0%||10%

'''Bowser minigames''' are [[Bowser]]'s own minigames. Bowser minigames are often extremely unfair to the players, as Bowser makes all the rules. Bowser minigames are also similar to 4-Player and 1-vs.-3 minigames (where the 1 is the player who lands on the [[Bowser Space]]), except that they produce a loser instead of a winner. The loser can lose [[coin]]s, [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s (if they have one, or more), or [[List of items|items]].

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', players compete against each other in a 4-Player or 1-vs.-3 minigame where each player that loses must hand over somewhere between 10 to 50 coins. If there are no losers due to the game not ending in the time limit, Bowser steals coins from either the player who landed on his space or everyone.

In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', players compete against each other in a special 4-Player minigame. The losing player loses either half or all of their coins, or all of their items.

In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', each player must survive attacks from Bowser and/or [[Koopa Kid]] (in ''Mario Party 7'') in a given time limit, and each player that does not survive loses. Each loser in the minigames loses either half or all of their coins, all of their items (in ''Mario Party 5'' and ''Mario Party 6''), or a Star (in ''Mario Party 7''). Also in ''Mario Party 7'', there are single-player Bowser minigames, where the one player who lands on the Bowser Space has to do various things to collect a [[key]] to escape from a dungeon before the time limit runs out. The penalty for losing is the same as in the multiplayer Bowser minigames.

In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', Bowser's minigames are referred to as '''[[Reverse Minigame]]s''', where the player has to get last place in order to win [[Mini Star]]s.

In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', Bowser minigames are referred to as '''Bowser Battles'''. [[heart (item)|Heart]]s can be lost there. Reverse Minigames from ''Mario Party 9'' also return in this game. If someone gets last place, they win 20 Mini Stars.

 

In ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', Bowser minigames return as one of the events that could occur when a player lands on a Bowser Space. Each player that fails the minigame loses 10 coins.

 

 

Featured in ''Mario Party 9'', '''Bowser Jr. minigames''' are played only when a player lands on a [[Bowser Jr. Space]]. These minigames involve two players, a captain and a partner, competing against Bowser Jr. If the players win, they get five Mini Stars each. If they lose, Bowser Jr. steals five Mini Stars each. Bowser Jr. minigames also appear in ''Mario Party 10''. They can be activated only by selecting them from Bonus Games or landing on an [[Event Space]] on the [[Bowser Board]] in amiibo Party. Players who win get 10 coins or a Star, and players who lose must pay 10 coins. Unlike in ''Mario Party 9'', players who face Bowser Jr. do not receive a partner.

 

[[File:Spike Roll Jump.webp|thumb|200px|[[Spike's Gambit]], a Coin minigame from ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]

 

Featured in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', '''Co-op minigames''' are minigames where the players must work together in order to win. In ''Super Mario Party'', they are four-player minigames that are played mainly in the [[River Survival]] mode. In ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', they are eight-player minigames known as '''Kaboom-Squad minigames''', as they are exclusively played in the Bowser Kaboom Squad mode.

[[File:BananaMilkShake.png|thumb|170px|[[Toadette]], [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], Waluigi, and Wario collecting bananas in [[Banana Shake]], a Donkey Kong minigame from ''Mario Party 6'']]

Introduced in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', '''Donkey Kong minigames''' are minigames run by [[Donkey Kong]], which are often short. They usually have players focus on collecting as many [[banana]]s as possible. After a Donkey Kong minigame is finished, players can trade their bananas to Donkey Kong for coins. They can also gain more depending on the DK Roulette.

Three single-player Donkey Kong minigames appear in ''Mario Party 7'': [[Jump, Man]]; [[Vine Country]]; and [[A Bridge Too Short]]. During the Party Cruise, if a player lands on a [[DK Space]] and is asked to beat Donkey Kong in a single-player Donkey Kong minigame, their reward can be 20 coins, 30 coins, or a Star, depending on what the roulette stops on. If Donkey Kong wins, the player gets nothing.

During the Solo Cruise, the reward for a Star for beating a single-player Donkey Kong minigame is replaced by 10 coins.

====Duel minigames====

[[File:SuperSmashEyeBrawl.png|thumb|left|150px|[[Toadette]] and Wario battling in [[Eyebrawl]], a Duel minigame from ''Mario Party 8'']]

First appearing in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', '''Duel minigames''' are minigames that involve two players playing against each other. Most usually have high stakes. They are the only type of minigame in any 1-vs.-1 game mode. The challenging player can choose to play for either coins or [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s. This is provided that the challenging player themself has enough to wager. From ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' onwards, the winner's prize is decided by a roulette wheel.

*In ''Mario Party 7'', the winner decides what to take from the loser through the Slot of Stupendousness. The loser gives either coins, Stars, or nothing to the winner, depending on what the roulette stops on.

**If the roulette lands on a coin with the number ten on it, the loser must give ten coins to the winner. The loser must forfeit all of their coins if they have ten coins or fewer.

**If the roulette lands on two coins, the loser must give half of their coins to the winner. If the loser has an odd number of coins, the upper portion is taken.

*In ''Mario Party 8'', the winner decides what to take from the loser with the Dart Wheel. The loser usually gives coins to the winner, but in rare cases, the loser can also give a Star or two to the winner. Nothing happens if both players tie or if the loser cannot give coins or Stars to the winner.

**[[Duel Space|VS Spaces]] appear in Star Battle Arena and Duel Battles and always pit the two players competing in the match against each other. The loser must give either one, five, or ten coins to the winner (if the loser is the attacker) or five, ten, or 20 coins to the winner (if the loser is the defender), depending on what the dart lands on. Unlike in Battle Royale and Tag Battle, the loser never gives Stars to the winner.

**During Battle Royale and Tag Battle, Duel minigames are triggered when a player uses [[Duelo Candy]], a candy that lets the player roll two [[Dice Block]]s and then duel with the first player they meet. If more than one player is on the same space, the player can choose whom to duel with. Like in Star Battle Arena and Duel Battles, the winner uses the Dart Wheel to determine what the loser must give to the winner. Unlike in Star Battle Arena and Duel Battles, the winner can also make the loser give a Star or two to them, although this occurs less frequently than the loser's giving coins to the winner. The loser can give Stars to the winner only if the attacker wins; if the defender wins, the loser gives just between one to 20 coins to the winner, depending on how many coins the loser has.

**During Battle Royale and Tag Battle, Duel minigames cannot occur in [[Koopa's Tycoon Town]] due to its unorthodox method of collecting Stars.

In ''Mario Party Superstars'', Duel minigames return to functioning as they do in earlier appearances, where players wager coins instead of the prize being randomly chosen. However, it is not possible to duel for Stars in this game. The ability to duel for Stars returns in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree''; however, it is possible to duel for Stars only when playing with Pro Rules or by using the [[Super Dueling Glove]] item.

[[File:MP3 Game Guys Sweet Surprise.png|thumb|200px|[[Game Guy's Sweet Surprise]], a Game Guy minigame from ''Mario Party 3'']]

Appearing only in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', '''Game Guy minigames''' are minigames run by [[Game Guy]]. These minigames are played upon a player landing on a [[Game Guy Space]]. These mostly luck-based minigames determine if the player takes the [[coin]]s back doubled (or more, depending on the minigame) or if they lose them all.

[[File:Hammer Slammer.png|thumb|left|170px|[[Hammer Slammer]], an Item minigame from ''Mario Party 2'']]

'''Item minigames''' are games that a player can play to get an item. They are triggered by landing on an [[Item Space]]. If the player gets [[Koopa Kid|Baby Bowser]], they get nothing. Item minigames appear in ''Mario Party 2'' and ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. In ''Mario Party 2'', the minigame played depends on what board is being played on. In ''Mario Party 3'', the Item Space may trigger a roulette to decide a minigame to be played. Item minigames return in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', where they are picked randomly upon a player reaching an Item Space. Also, Baby Bowser is replaced by [[Bowser Jr.]] Item minigames reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. However, they are not guaranteed to be played when a player lands on an Item Space, as they are played only if the roulette that appears when the player lands on the space lands on a minigame icon. Also, obtaining an item is always guaranteed, as Bowser Jr. does not appear, nor does any equivalent. The below table displays information pertaining to which Item minigame is played on which board in ''Mario Party 2''.

{|class="wikitable"width=50%

|[[Roll Out the Barrels]]

Being a category found only in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', the Last category features only one minigame, [[Superstar Showdown]], which is played at the end of [[Mario Party 8#Star Battle Arena|Star Battle Arena]]. The minigame plays out similarly to the boss minigames in ''Mario Party DS'' and ''Mario Party: Island Tour'', as it involves the player fighting against [[Bowser]] one-on-one.

[[File:BalloonBustersMP7.png|thumb|left|200px|[[Balloon Busters]], a Mic minigame from ''Mario Party 7'']]

First appearing in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', '''Mic minigames''' are minigames that utilize the [[Nintendo GameCube#Nintendo GameCube Microphone|Nintendo GameCube Microphone]] when they are played. In ''Mario Party 6'', five different Mic minigames appear, with all of them being 1-vs.-3 minigames. In these minigames, the solo player says a variety of commands with the microphone to try to win against the team of three. A separate mode, known as Mic Mode, is also found in ''Mario Party 6'', in which players can play extra minigames using the microphone that they are unable to play in Party Mode or Minigame Mode. If there is no microphone inserted, there is an option for players to play Mic minigames by using the GameCube Controller like a microphone instead of using the microphone itself. Pressing the {{button|gcn|R}} button on the controller opens up a blue box of commands; the player can select which command they want to do by using the control stick to navigate. Mic minigames cannot appear if the microphone is turned off.

Mic minigames reappear in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. This time, 10 different Mic minigames appear, with five of them being 1-vs.-3 minigames and the other five being 4-Player minigames. In addition to the 10 Mic minigames, there is also a special Mic minigame that can be played only if the player lands on a [[Mic Space]] during Party Mode. Here, the player can wager the number of coins they have (up to 99) and double the number of coins they wager. In the special Mic minigame, three to five cards appear, each with a different type of fruit. In order to win the Mic minigame and double the coins wagered, the player must guess all of the fruits on each card correctly. If the player does not guess the fruit on a card within the given time limit or makes a wrong guess, the Mic minigame ends, and the player loses their wager. The Mic minigames function as they did in ''Mario Party 6''.

====Mini Mini-Games====

[[File:Miminimini.jpg|thumb|left|170px|Goomba Poker, a Mini Mini-Game]]

'''Mini Mini-Games''' are a type of minigame in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. They can be played only by a character that has the effects of a [[Mini Mushroom]] via [[tiny pipe]]s that lead to secret passageways on all of the boards. There are two types of Mini Mini-Games: those that involve winning [[List of items|items]], such as [[Item-Go-Round]] and [[Item Poker]], and those that involve winning [[coin]]s, such as [[Coin Slots]] and [[Tropical Fishing]]. The themes are usually paired with the theme of the board (such as [[Goomba Poker]] and [[Card Matching]] on [[Goomba's Greedy Gala]]).

====Motion minigames====

[[File:Crank 2 Rank.webp|thumb|[[Night Lights]], a Motion minigame from ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]

Motion minigames appear in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. They are minigames that require the use of Joy-Con to perform specific tasks. These minigames are optional in all modes in which they are playable. All players are required to use a single Joy-Con controller each. [[Rosalina's Radical Race]] is the only Showdown minigame that is classified as a Motion minigame, which makes [[Rosalina]] the only Jamboree Buddy exclusive to games with Motion minigames turned on. [[Roll with It]] and [[Fast Fishing]] are also the only Item and Duel minigames, respectively, to be classified as Motion minigames.

 

While ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Party]]'' all feature motion-controlled minigames, they are treated as regular minigames in those games.

[[File:DunkBros.png|thumb|Mario and Toadette competing against Waluigi and Wario in [[Dunk Bros.]], a Rare minigame from ''Mario Party 6'']]

Introduced in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', '''Rare minigames''' are special minigames that do not appear at all in normal Party Mode. They are sometimes very long and have special options that other minigames do not have. These minigames return in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' under the same name, though similar minigames are featured in side modes in other games in the series: the Extra Room in ''Mario Party 4'', the Bonus Room in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', the Extras Zone in ''Mario Party 8'', Puzzle Mode in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', the Extras in ''Mario Party 9'', the Bonus Games in ''Mario Party 10'', and Toad's Rec Room in ''Super Mario Party''. In ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', such minigames are categorized under the "Puzzle" and "Extras" categories. In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', returning minigames of this category appear in the "Special" and "Sports & Puzzles" categories, respectively.

====Rhythm minigames====

[[File:Super Mario Party - All-Star Swingers.png|thumb|left|200px|[[All-Star Swingers]], a Rhythm minigame from ''Super Mario Party'']]

Featured in ''Super Mario Party'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', '''Rhythm minigames''' are four-player minigames where the players gain points by performing actions to the rhythms of songs that play during the minigames. Perfect timing earns the player three points, while early or late inputs are worth just one point. In ''Super Mario Party'', each player has separate points from each other and whoever scores the most points wins. In ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', this is changed so that they are purely cooperative, with all players contributing to the same point counter.

 

[[File:SMPJ Yoshi Race Minigame.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Yoshi's Mountain Race]], a Showdown minigame from ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]

'''Showdown minigames''' appear in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' and can be played to earn Jamboree Buddies. They are four-player minigames that are typically longer than regular four-player minigames, often being split into multiple parts or having many small back-to-back challenges. These minigames are themed after each respective character that can appear as a Jamboree Buddy while also featuring them in a non-playable capacity. In Minigame Bay, if the player chooses to play as the specific character of a Showdown minigame, the non-playable character appears to be a grayed-out version, and the ally in question will not cheer for the winner. The first player to reach the Jamboree Buddy on the board is given an advantage over the other players that is specified before the minigame starts.

====Story minigames====

[[File:BowserzBop 4.png|thumb|left|200px|[[Bowser Bop]], a Story minigame from ''Mario Party 4'']]

Being a category found only in ''Mario Party 4'', '''Story minigames''' are minigames that are played in the game's Story Mode to win the player character's present in the [[Present Room]].

[[File:SMP image6.png|thumb|200px|[[Bumper Brawl]], a Team minigame from ''Super Mario Party'']]

Featured only in ''Super Mario Party'', '''Team minigames''' are four-player minigames in which each player's allies also participate. The more allies a player has, the more of an advantage they have over other players.
