Stampede is a Challenge minigame in Mario Party 8.

Overview[edit]

In the introduction, a Shy Guy is seen placing a small stack of blank paper on a podium, on the right of which is a stamper and on the left of which is a container to collect the stamped sheets of paper and a counter. The player steps up to the podium and picks up the stamper, and the game begins.

The player must push Wii Remote downward to stamp a blank sheet of paper with their emblem. Each blank sheet they stamp is worth a point. Occasionally, the player comes across a sheet of paper with Bowser's emblem on it randomly positioned among the other blank sheets of paper. The player must press the A Button or B Button button to move this sheet aside and keep stamping. If the player stamps a Bowser sheet, they lose two points. If the player is able to earn 20 points, they win. Since the time limit is only 20 seconds, the player must be extremely quick in order to stamp all the blank sheets of paper.

In Free Play Arcade, Miis can be seen in the minigame.
