Bash 'n' Cash is a 1-vs-3 Coin-collecting minigame in Mario Party.

OverviewEdit

The minigame opens with the solo player, who is wearing a Bowser Suit, standing at a door and the three team players on the opposite side.[1]

During gameplay, every team player tries to hit the solo player with a yellow hammer to steal Coin Bags, or one Coin if the solo player has fewer than five. Even if the solo player drops either item, they can recover it if they are fast enough. The solo player can jump as a way to avoid the team players. The minigame concludes after 30 seconds pass or if the solo player loses every coin. Players keep any coins they have at the end.

Team players cannot collect any coins in the Bowser variation. If the solo player is never hit, their penalty is losing 15 Coins to Bowser.

Bash 'n' Cash can be bought at the Mini-Game House for 400 Coins.
