Template:Minigame-infobox King of the Thrill is a 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 8. Its name and goal come from the real-world game King of the Hill, in which one individual tries to maintain control of a certain area, often a hill or pile, while the other players try to seize it.

Introduction

Characters from both teams are shown climbing ladders until they reach the top of two small rocky platforms similar to the ones in the Mount Duel mode in Mario Party 6, behind which is a single larger rocky platform. Then the game begins.

Gameplay

There are two opposing characters standing on each of the two small rocky platforms. Each set of two opposing characters must fight by jumping on, punching, or kicking each other until one of them falls off. Small portions of each platform will gradually begin to crumble away, making it hard for characters to stay on them. The character that wins will jump onto a ladder leading to the larger platform as their smaller platform crumbles away completely. If both members of the same team manage to defeat their respective opponents from the other team, both members of that team will climb a ladder onto the larger platform and win. If characters from opposing teams defeat their respective opponents, both characters will face off on the larger platform until one is victorious. Portions of the larger platform will also begin to crumble away after a certain point. The team of the winning character will win the minigame. If both characters fall off the larger platform, the minigame will end in a tie.

Ending

Both winners (or the remaining winner) stand on the larger platform and celebrate, while the silhouettes of two Fly Guys are seen in the background, flying and carrying the silhouettes of the losing team's characters. If the minigame ends in a tie, four Fly Guy silhouettes will carry the silhouettes of all four players as "Tie" appears on the screen.
