==Overview==
The object of this mini-game is to [[jump]] from platform to platform and reach the end first while avoiding obstacles. The [[player]]s can also collect additional [[coin]]s located on few platforms. If a player jumps into a pyramid of bricks, the player will fall and will be out of the mini-game. If a player is jumped on, his or her movement and jump will be restricted, causing the player's task to be harder. However this can backfire as the bounce from the jump can cause the jumping player to lose control. The player has to be quick and not be too detracted from collecting coins as a few seconds can make all the difference. This mini-game takes place over the skies with several floating checkered platforms.

Players [[jump]] from platforms in the sky on their way to the goal. There are [[coin]]s on some of the platforms. Any player that either falls off or jumps into a brick structure (which is larger in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'') is eliminated. In the ''Mario Party 2'' version only, there are also forward- and backward-moving conveyor belts as well as moving platforms. A player can weaken their opponent's jump and movement temporarily by jumping on them. Whoever makes it to the goal first wins. If all the players fall off the course, the minigame ends in a draw.


In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', the main difference of the current mini-game is there are more obstacles in the race. there is also the inclusion of moving platforms as well as plateforms that have a treadmill effect either going forwards or backwards.
In the first two ''Mario Party'' games, the characters perform their usual poses from winning or losing, though in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', a player only does their defeat animation if they end with no coins.


The minigame can be bought from the [[Mini-Game House]] in ''Mario Party'' for 450 Coins when available or from [[Woody]] in ''Mario Party 2'' for 50 Coins.

Overview[edit]

Platform Peril in Super Mario Party Jamboree
Gameplay from Super Mario Party Jamboree

Players jump from platforms in the sky on their way to the goal. There are coins on some of the platforms. Any player that either falls off or jumps into a brick structure (which is larger in Super Mario Party Jamboree) is eliminated. In the Mario Party 2 version only, there are also forward- and backward-moving conveyor belts as well as moving platforms. A player can weaken their opponent's jump and movement temporarily by jumping on them. Whoever makes it to the goal first wins. If all the players fall off the course, the minigame ends in a draw.

In the first two Mario Party games, the characters perform their usual poses from winning or losing, though in Super Mario Party Jamboree, a player only does their defeat animation if they end with no coins.

The minigame can be bought from the Mini-Game House in Mario Party for 450 Coins when available or from Woody in Mario Party 2 for 50 Coins.
