Mario Matrix is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 8. The minigame's name is a reference to the 1999 science-fiction movie The Matrix, which, like this minigame, has the theme of a cybernetic world inside the computer; the green background of the minigame even resembles the green rain of codes from the movie.

Introduction[edit]

The introduction to Mario Matrix

The four players are in some kind of lab and walk into four capsule-like containers, all connected to a computer. The players all get transported into the computer, where a large hexagon made of 35 smaller hexagons appears.

Gameplay[edit]

The players must click on as many illuminated hexagons as they can by pointing at the TV screen and pressing A Button or B Button on their Wii Remotes. The hexagons are illuminated for only a few seconds. The player(s) who click(s) on the most hexagons win(s). If nobody clicks on any hexagons, the minigame ends in a tie.

Ending[edit]

Winning players are transported back out through the capsule, performing a victory dance, while the losing players remain hovering on the computer screen. It is possible for no one to remain if everyone gets the same score. The other players do nothing (only in Free Play). If the minigame ends in a tie, the camera scrolls right to the computer screen and shows all four players hovering.
