'''Card Party''' is a side-game from ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. It is very similar to ''Mario Party's'' main game, except it's in the form of a card game. Hosted by [[Mamar]] (in charge of Bonus Mode), this board is entirely made up of cards, with character game pieces instead of actual characters. The first thing that players do is choose the size of the board (7x7, 8x8, 9x9, or 10x10). Then, the game pieces is chosen ([[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Peach]], [[Yoshi]], [[Wario]], [[Daisy]], or [[Waluigi]]). Next, the order of play is chosen by picking cards numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4. The player that picks 1 is first, and so on. When this is done, players chose where to start on the board. Once the game started, each player rolled the dice (not [[Dice Block]]) and moved a certain number of spaces. As they went turning cards over, they could pick which direction they want to go. When a new card is turn over, it reveals a Path Card, Item Card, Event Card, Bowser Card, or Star Card. | '''Card Party''' is a side-game from ''[[Mario Party 5]]''.

Card Party
Card Party is a side-game from Mario Party 5. It is very similar to Mario Party's main game, except it's in the form of a card game. Hosted by Mamar (in charge of Bonus Mode), this board is entirely made up of cards, with character game pieces instead of actual characters. The first thing that players do is choose the size of the board (7x7, 8x8, 9x9, or 10x10). Then, the game pieces is chosen (Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Wario, Daisy, or Waluigi). Next, the order of play is chosen by picking cards numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4. The player that picks 1 is first, and so on. When this is done, players chose where to start on the board. Once the game started, each player rolled the dice (not Dice Block) and moved a certain number of spaces. As they went turning cards over, they could pick which direction they want to go. When a new card is turn over, it reveals a Path Card, Item Card, Event Card, Bowser Card, or Star Card.
