Mario Party: The Top 100:

Desert Dash is a 2-vs-2 minigame in Mario Party and Mario Party: The Top 100.

Overview[edit]

Desert Dash involves the team members working together to move with log boards on their feet and cross the finish line at the end. Both team members can step forward on a certain side, indicated by a dialog box. If a player moves their foot in a wrong direction, a red "X" displays on the box, and the team collapses temporarily. The only actual obstacle is a Thwomp, which tries to crush the players. The first team to cross the finish line wins.

The Mario Party: The Top 100 version is mostly the same, except the Thwomp has an updated design, and the boards are red and blue. Also, whenever a team player does an incorrect step, the Circle Pad notification becomes pink.

Desert Dash can be bought from the Mini-Game House in Mario Party for 150 coins when it becomes available.
