'''Key-pa-Way''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party]]''.


==Gameplay==
==Overview==
All the players have to team up to win this mini-game; one player gets a [[key]], and the rest of the players have to intercept the key like a team. If one of the five [[Spike Koopa]]s gets the key, the game ends. If the player with the key reaches to the key lock, all the players win, earning ten [[coin]]s.
The minigame requires four-way cooperation, like [[Running of the Bulb]], so all four players either win or lose together. One player has the key, which the others try to obtain. If the player with the key reaches the lock, every player wins ten [[Coin]]s, otherwise all players lose the minigame and lose five Coins each if either time runs out one of the five [[Spike Koopa]]s steals the key.


==Trivia==
Key-pa-Way costs 400 Coins to buy from the [[Mini-Game House]] when it becomes available.
*The mini-game's name is a pun on the phrase "[[Wikipedia:Keep Away|Keep Away]]".
