Vine with Me is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 3 (where "with" is capitalized), Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars. Its name is a pun on the phrase "fine with me."
Gameplay
All the vines swing back and forth as the minigame starts. Players have to get to the end of the level by swinging with vines as fast as possible. If a player misses a vine, that player is stunned for a moment and goes back to the vine they previously grabbed. The first player to reach the end wins. In Mario Party 3, a tie occurs if three minutes pass.
In Mario Party 3, the minigame takes place in a forest filled with Piranha Plants. A Piranha Plant eats the starting platforms after the minigame starts, and Piranha Plants appear at the bottom of the screen when the player misses a jump. In The Top 100, the minigame instead takes place in a standard forest. The starting platforms simply fall off the screen, and the Piranha Plants do not appear when a jump is missed. In Mario Party Superstars, the minigame takes place in a forest filled with Piranha Plants, just like in Mario Party 3, but they do not appear when a jump is missed, just like in The Top 100.
