Growing Up is a Free-for-All minigame featured in Mario Party 9. Its name is a play on the common phrase that refers to when a child is getting older and acting more mature.

Introduction[edit]

The competitors are standing underneath their Brick Blocks. The flying block displaying the buttons to press descends from above, showing a question mark.

Gameplay[edit]

Growing Up Growing Up
After eight rounds, the player with the tallest vine is the winner.

Players make their vines grow by pressing the button that appears on the Flying ? Block with a fast reaction time. The fastest player to hit the button gets a greater height increase for their vine than the other players do. If a player presses the wrong button or does not press any button, their vine will not grow for that round.
