Mini-Game Island is a location in Mario Party. It is an island located on the outskirts of Mushroom Village, from which it can be reached using a raft. The goal of the island is to clear all 50 minigames, although the character can reach the end by taking shortcuts. Each minigame has a quota the player must reach; the player starts out with four lives and loses a life every time they fail a minigame. (If they lose a minigame and lose their last life, they receive a Game Over.) Coins are won after each minigame is complete. Collecting 100 coins or completing a minigame for the first time grants the character an extra life unless they have 100 lives. At World 9, Fwoosh can take the character to start if they want.

Spaces

• Mini-Game Space – When the player enters this space, they get to play a minigame. Blue spaces are un-cleared spaces, and yellow spaces are cleared spaces.
• Koopa Troopa Space – When the player enters this space, they get to talk to the Koopa Troopa and save. Most worlds end with a Koopa Troopa Space.
• Entrance Space – When the player enters this space, they get to go to another area.
• Pink Space – This space cannot be entered and is merely used to move across.

Finally, if the player beats the current record on both of those mazes, they will unlock Bumper Ball Maze 3.

Trivia

• The exterior map's music adds accompaniment when Worlds 1 and 2 are each completed. The World 4 Cave and the World 6-8 Castle have their own songs, but World 8 (the third floor) has extra accompaniment that does not add to Worlds 6 and 7 (the first and second floors, respectively). After World 9 is accessed after World 8 is completed, the exterior map's music changes drastically.
