Mallet-Go-Round is an Item minigame found in Mystery Land in Mario Party 2. Its name is a pun on "merry-go-round," a type of carnival or amusement park ride.

Gameplay

The player attempts to use a hammer to knock two blocks down on a roulette to get the item they desire. Each time the player knocks down a block, the remaining blocks on the roulette change direction and spin faster. If the player knocks down Baby Bowser's block (which is a single one, rather than two like the items), they get nothing. If the player loses by running out of time, the roulette simply stops.

In Mario Party 2, the minigame can be purchased from Woody for 500 coins.
