'''Aim of the Game''' is a Battle and Duel [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' and a Free-for-All minigame in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]''.


==Gameplay==
==Overview==
Each [[player]] must shoot five cards from a falling deck and hope to get the highest score. The cards flip repetitively, and the number on the card (and therefore the point value) is only visible for a short while. The numbers are 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 2x (which doubles the player's current score), and 0x (which reduces the player's total score to zero). The "x" cards are multipliers. A timer is not visible while the game is going, but if the last of the cards fall off-screen, the game ends. Once the mini-game announcer says "Finish!", the value in the cards gets added up or multiplied. Whoever has the most points wins the minigame.

Each player shoots five cards with the aim of getting the most points. The number on a card can be either 5, 10, 20, 30, or 50, but there is a ×2 multiplier card, as well as ×0, which resets their score entirely. The minigame ends after every card has fallen.

Aim of the Game is a Battle and Duel minigame in Mario Party 8 and a Free-for-All minigame in Mario Party: The Top 100.

Overview[edit]

Aim of the Game from Mario Party: The Top 100
Gameplay from Mario Party: The Top 100

The minigame opens in a casino, where cards are released from a top hat.[1]

Each player shoots five cards with the aim of getting the most points. The number on a card can be either 5, 10, 20, 30, or 50, but there is a ×2 multiplier card, as well as ×0, which resets their score entirely. The minigame ends after every card has fallen. Any player with the most points, the highest possible one being 800, wins. If both players end with the same score in the Duel variation, it is a tie.

The minigame ends with the winners (including second-place players in Mario Party: The Top 100) doing their animations for winning, while each loser does their animation. In the event of a tie in Mario Party 8, every player does their losing animation.

Its name is a pun on a phrase meaning "what one wants to accomplish."
