Move to the Music is a 1-vs-3 minigame in Mario Party 2.

Overview[edit]

The solo player does a sequence of dance moves, and each team player has a turn trying to copy them. The song that plays is either "Rhythm Shakers" and "Dancing Star," usually decided at random, but in Mini-Game Park, the player can choose which song plays. In the Mini-Game Coaster, "Rhythm Shakers" plays on Normal difficulty and "Dancing Star" on Hard. Furthermore, the Mini-Game Coaster always features the lone human player as one of the three team members, and their goal is to avoid being eliminated. Overall, if at least one team player copies every move correctly, the team wins, but if no team player does, the solo player wins.

The minigame can be purchased from Woody for 200 Coins.
