Roll Call is a 4-Player minigame found in Mario Party 2, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars.
Overview[edit]
Players count the number of either Bob-ombs, Boos, or Toads; this is consistently the case for the Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulty levels of the Mini-Game Coaster, respectively. Some events or objects may interfere with the players' count: Bob-ombs exploding, therefore extracting themselves from the total, as well as crates with their likeness; Boos can vanish and reappear; and Toads are in a scene with mushrooms bearing the same cap as them. Players who guess the correct number shown on a blue count during the end results win, including if all four guess correctly. If none of the guesses are correct, the minigame ends in a draw.
The Mario Party: The Top 100 version features only Bob-ombs, though any of the three species can appear in Mario Party Superstars, like the original Mario Party 2 version. For both later editions of Roll Call, any player who guesses the exact number wins first place, but the others are ranked depending on how close their guess to the actual number, and even if none of the four players guess the correct number of Bob-ombs, anyone who is the closest wins.
It costs 200 Coins to buy the minigame from Woody in Mario Party 2.
The minigame title refers to the phrase of the same name, meaning for a group leader to check who is present and who is not.
