==Tip==
In ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', the cards descend noticeably faster.
The limit of five cards in the game causes the possibility to achieve an unbeatable score; 800. This is done by getting a 50, then four 2x cards, or 2 50s and 3x cards. The 50 MUST be shot first.

Mario Party: The Top 100:

Aim of the Game is a Battle and Duel minigame found in Mario Party 8 and a Free-for-All minigame featured in Mario Party: The Top 100. Its name is a pun on a phrase that means "what one wants to accomplish." The minigame takes place in a casino.

Introduction[edit]

A top hat is on the screen, and cards start flying out of the top. Shortly thereafter, the game begins.

Gameplay[edit]

Each player must shoot five cards from a falling deck and try to get the highest score. The cards flip repetitively, and the number on each card (and therefore the point value) is visible for only a short while. The numbers are 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, ×2 (which doubles the player's current score), and ×0 (which reduces the player's total score to zero). The "×" cards are multipliers. A timer is not visible while the minigame is in progress, but as soon as the last of the cards fall offscreen, the minigame ends; afterwards, the value of the cards gets added up or multiplied. Whoever has the most points wins the minigame. The most points a player can get is 800, obtained by hitting a 50-point card first and then ×2-multiplier cards for the other four, or by hitting two 50-point cards first and three ×2-multiplier cards after. In the Duel variant, if both players score the same number of points, the minigame ends in a tie.

In Mario Party: The Top 100, the cards descend noticeably faster.

Ending[edit]

Winning players (as well as second-place players in The Top 100) perform their respective victory poses while any losing players do their losing animations beside them. If the minigame ends in a tie in Mario Party 8, all players do their losing animations.
