The [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] has many types of minigames. Most award ten coins, while some award items. In ''[[Mario Party]]'', a few minigames can cause a player to lose coins, although this system was changed in later ''Mario Party'' games. Since ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', players can now practice minigames before trying them out for real. Some minigames involve collecting coins freely, and any coins players collect are added to their coin totals afterwards; players cannot lose unless they do not get any coins. Some minigames can last as long as five, three, or two minutes, but a timer does not appear until 30 or 60 seconds are left. | The [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] has many types of minigames.

'''Battle minigames''' are minigames that take coins from all the players, then give them back in different quantities based on the results. The number of coins taken can go from 10 (later five) to 50 coins per player. Unlike in other minigames, the rank order is important—a player can still win some coins for being in second place. Like the 4-Player minigames, most minigames are evenly matched between the four players. | '''Battle minigames''' are minigames that take coins from all the players, then give them back in different quantities based on the results.

Appearing in ''Mario Party 9'', ''Mario Party 10'', and ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', boss battles are played when the players reach a [[Boss Battle Space]]. Each [[board (Mario Party series)|board]] features two bosses. In these minigames, players must defeat an enemy by working together (except in [[Diddy's Banana Blast]] and [[DK's Banana Bonus]]), though each one tries to get more points than the others. These minigames have no time limit and end only when the boss health meter is empty. When half of the health meter is empty, the boss develops more diverse ways to attack. Whoever lands the final hit on the boss receives bonus points. | Appearing in ''Mario Party 9'', ''Mario Party 10'', and ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', boss battles are played when the players reach a [[Boss Battle Space]].
