Sort Stack is a single-player minigame in Mario Party Advance.

Overview

In the opening, a sweat drop is displayed in a text bubble above the player character, after they get on a cart in front of a bookshelf.

During the gameplay, the player tries to reorganize all of the books into the appropriate shelves before time runs out. Red books go on the top, blue on the third, yellow on the second, and green on the bottom. The Shroom City mode and Mini-Game Attack have the goal of sorting one shelf within 30 seconds and 15 seconds, respectively. It is possible to hold two books at once, with points being earned whenever a shelf is cleared. Play Land adds seconds to a timer upon the player organizing a shelf: three seconds for a shelf with three sections, six for one with two sections, and nine for one at full length.
