Mazed & Confused is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 5.

Overview[edit]

Players start at the corners of a rectangular maze. The goal is to make it to the center. However, there are pegs creating a grid throughout the maze. Electrical barriers are conducted between the pegs and change every two seconds, meaning players have to find a way around them. If a player touches an electrical barrier, they are stunned for a moment. The first player to reach the center of the maze wins. The color trail is character-dependent (e.g., Mario's is red, Peach's is pink, and Waluigi's is black). If no one reaches the center of the maze within the time limit, the minigame ends in a draw.

Controls[edit]

  • Control Stick – Move

In-game text[edit]

  • Rules"Work your way to the star in the middle of the maze. Whoever gets there first wins."
  • Advice"The walls of the maze change often, so keep an eye on the pathway!"
