King of the Thrill
King of Thrill is a 2-Vs.-2 mini-game in Mario Party 8. It is played similar to Super Paper Mario: Wii Remote held sideways, 
is to move, 
button is for jumping and 
Button for punching. and at the same time is kicking.
Introduction
Characters from both teams are shown climbing ladders until they reach the top of two small rocky platforms similar to the ones in the Mount Duel mode in Mario Party 6, behind which is a single larger rocky platform. Then the game begins.
Gameplay
There are two opposing characters standing on each of the two small rocky platforms. Each set of two opposing characters will begin fighting until one of the characters falls off. Small portions of each platform will gradually begin to crumble away, making it hard for characters to stay on them. The character that wins will jump onto a ladder leading to the larger platform as their smaller platform crumbles away completely. If both members of the same team manage to defeat their respective opponents from the other team, both members of that team will climb a ladder onto the larger platform and win. If characters from opposing teams defeat their respective opponents, both characters will face off on the larger platform until one is victorious. Portions of the larger platform will also begin to crumble away after a certain point. The team of the winning character will win the minigame. If both characters fall off the larger platform, a Fly Guy will decide who wins by carrying one character and dropping them on the platform.
Ending
Both winners (or the remaining winner) will stand on the larger platform and celebrate, while the silhouettes of two Fly Guys are seen in the background flying and carrying the silhouettes of the losing team's characters.
Trivia
- The mini-game name is a pun off a real game and FOX TV show named "King of the Hill", itself a reference to the physical activity in which one person attempts to control a certain area for some length of time while others attempt to take that control away.
