Spin Off is an 8-Player minigame in Mario Party 7. Its name comes from "spin-off," which is where another character from a TV show, book, or game stars in their own.

Gameplay

Two characters on each team are controlling a rotating cylinder with halves of pictures of enemies from the Super Mario franchise (a Goomba, Bob-omb, Thwomp, Whomp, and Chain Chomp). Each player on a team controls one half of the rotating pictures. When a player character presses the lever to stop a slot, the slot makes one complete rotation before stopping. The first team to form three different pictures achieves victory. This is the only minigame in Mario Party 7 to use the characters' main victory animations from the previous installments.

Ending

The rotating cylinder controller sticks go back into the machine, and the characters do their Mario Party 6 winning animations. When the characters win, they do not say their winning voice lines, instead simply exclaiming.

Controls

  • L Button / R Button – Stop / Start

In-game text

  • Rules"Stop the slots to make the character shown. You must make 3 different characters to win."
  • Advice"Once the slot stops, press the button to start it anew. The slot will make 1 full rotation before stopping."
