Mini-Game Island
- This article is about the mode in Mario Party. For the mode in Mario Party: The Top 100, see Mario Party: The Top 100 § Minigame Island.
Mini-Game Island is an island located on the outskirts of Mushroom Village in Mario Party. To get there, the player must use the raft in Mushroom Village. The goal of the island is to clear all 50 minigames, although the character can reach the end by taking shortcuts. Each minigame has a quota the player must reach; the player starts out with four lives and loses a life every time they fail a minigame. Coins are won after each minigame is complete. Collecting 100 Coins or completing a minigame for the first time grants the character an extra life. At World 9, Fwoosh can take the character to start if they want to.
Spaces
- Mini-Game Space – When the player enters this space, they get to play a minigame. Blue spaces are un-cleared spaces, and yellow spaces are cleared spaces.
- Koopa Troopa Space – When the player enters this space, they get to talk to the Koopa Troopa and save. Most worlds end with a Koopa Troopa Space.
- Entrance Space – When the player enters this space, they get to go to another area.
- Pink Space – This space cannot be entered and is merely used to move across.

Trivia
- The exterior map's music adds accompaniment when Worlds 1 and 2 are each completed. The World 4 Cave and the World 6-8 Castle have their own songs, but World 8 (the third floor) has extra accompaniment that does not add to Worlds 6 and 7 (the first and second floors, respectively). After World 9 is accessed after World 8 is completed, the exterior map's music changes drastically.
