[[File:MP9 Reverse Minigame Select.png|250px|thumb|Three of the four Reverse Minigames in ''Mario Party 9'']]
A [[Reverse Minigame]] is a Bowser Event introduced in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. It is one of many events that may appear on a roulette when a player lands on a [[Bowser Space]]. If the wheel stops on a Reverse Minigame, [[Bowser]] forces all players to participate in a Free-for-All minigame, where the goal - unlike regular minigames - is to lose. Bowser awards ten [[Mini Star]]s to the player who finishes in last place.
A '''Reverse Minigame''' is a [[Bowser]] event introduced in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. It is one of many events that may appear on the Bowser Spin Wheel when a player lands on a [[Bowser Space]]. If the Bowser Spin Wheel stops on "Reverse Minigame!" Bowser forces all players to participate in a Free-for-All [[minigame]], where the goal, unlike in regular minigames, is to lose. Bowser awards ten [[Mini Star]]s to the player who finishes in last place (20 [[banana]]s for [[DK's Jungle Ruins]]), making them the opposite of the [[Fire Bro]]'s [[Battle Space|Battle Minigames]], which relieve the last-place player of ten Mini Stars. If everyone finishes in last place, no one gets any Mini Stars.


Relatively few Free-For-All minigames are also Reverse Minigames. The four that do have a Reverse version seem to have a Bowser-like aesthetic, involving backgrounds and obstacles commonly associated with the Koopa King in other games.
