Keep-Away Mayhem (Piggy in the Middle in the British English version) is a 1-vs.-2 or 3 minigame appearing in Mario Party 10.

Gameplay[edit]

The players are in a field, but while the group players are passing a soccer ball, the solo player is freely moving around. While the rivals must pass the ball for as long as they can, the solo player must either kick away the ball or steal it from the player that currently has it. Each rival must press the button of a teammate's spot in order to pass the ball to them. If the solo player successfully manages to kick the ball away or steal it within the time limit, they win. If the rivals keep freely passing the ball to each other for the entire 30 seconds, they win.

In the 1-vs.-2 variation of this minigame, the third player is represented by a Shy Guy.
