Roll Call is a 4-Player minigame found in Mario Party 2 and Mario Party: The Top 100. The name refers to the real-life term, a "roll call," to be performed by the leader of a group (typically, an army or a classroom) checking to see who is present and who is absent.
Gameplay
Mario Party 2
Players have to count the Toads, Boos, or Bob-ombs. For the Toads, there are inanimate mushrooms on the ground with the same caps as the Toads, which should not be counted. For the Boos, they can appear and disappear. For the Bob-ombs, players must count only Bob-ombs that do not explode (those that do must be subtracted). The player who has the same count as the blue count at the top of the screen when roll call comes wins. If no count matches the blue count at the top of the screen when the character count is totaled, the minigame ends in a draw. Also, it is possible to have all four players win this minigame, if they all have the same count and the blue count at the top of the screen matches.
Mario Party: The Top 100
Only Bob-ombs appear in the Mario Party: The Top 100 edition of this minigame. Gameplay is the same, but players are now ranked based on how close they are to the count at the top. Players who are correct (have the same count as the count at the top) receive first place; other players are ranked based on how close they are to the correct count. A draw will result only if no count matches the correct count and all four players were the same distance in relation to the correct count.
