Template:Minigame-infobox Random Ride is a battle minigame found in Mario Party 5. It is very similar in concept to that of Day at the Races from Mario Party 2.

Gameplay

The mini-game is mostly luck-based. Each player has to pick a name from a list of competitors for a race (randomized). Generally, the better a machine's name, the better the chance that player will win the race. When played in a board game, the player in last place picks their machine first, with the player in first place picking last; in Free Play mode, the players pick their machine in a random order. Players who choose early gain an advantage, and vice versa.

Gameplay of Random Ride.

After everyone has chosen their machine, the players race. There is nothing players can do at this point; it is all up to chance. Players get eliminated throughout the race through various misfortunes, such as engine blowouts or collisions with Bullet Bills. Eventually, one player is left; that player is declared the winner.

Some examples of names for the machines include:

  • General Long Shot
  • Totally Terrible
  • At Its Best
  • Nothing's Right
  • Fate's Decision
  • Perfect Conditions
  • Miracles Do Happen
  • Daily Routine
  • Almost-Guaranteed Victory
  • So-So, I Suppose
  • Feeling Good
  • Difficulties Ahead

Controls

  • Control Stick – Move Cursor
  • A Button – Confirm
