Flower Shower is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 5.

Overview

The opening shows a male Green Koopa Troopa and a female Red Koopa Troopa exiting a church while a tune sounding like the "Bridal Chorus" plays. The female throws the bouquet into the air.

Players try to collect the most flowers, which are from the bouquet, before time runs out. Pink flowers are worth one point, and golden ones are worth three. This is also the third minigame of Mini-Game Decathlon, which has a similar objective, except the score can go up to 1,000. Players can jump on opponents to slow them briefly and make then unable to jump. Players who enter the water are slowed briefly. The player to meet the objective wins, though if at least two players end with the same number, the minigame is a draw.

In the ending, all four players stand on the bridge. Winners catch the bouquet and do their victory poses while the losers do their losing animations; the two Koopa Troopas also celebrate while the church bell rings. If a draw occurs, the Koopa Troopas go into the church as the doors close, and every player does their losing animation.
