Arch Rivals is a 1-vs.-3 minigame appearing in Super Mario Party Jamboree. Its name is a pun on "archrivals."

Introduction

The rivals all rise up into view, holding their signs before tilting to the left and right in unison. The solo player draws their bow before a countdown starting from the number three commences.

The rivals can tilt their signs to avoid the solo player's attacks. The edges of the signs are worth 10 points, the middle-edges are worth 20 points, and the centers are worth 30 points. If the solo players reaches 100 points within 30 seconds, they win the minigame; otherwise, the rivals win.
