Button Mashers is a Duel Mini-game found in Mario Party 5.
Two players try to avoid getting crushed by the blocks falling from the sky. To do so, they must quickly and simultaneously press every button shown on each of the blocks they are carrying. If both players survive for a few seconds, another block will fall, requiring the players to press two buttons simultaneously. If both still survive, another block will fall, making a total of three, then four, and finally five.
If a player fails to press their button(s) quickly enough at anytime during the mini-game, then the character gets crushed immediately, which results the game announcer to say "Finish!" to end the mini-game and their opponent will be declared the winner but, if both players gets crushed at the same time, then the mini-game will end in a Draw.
