Tipsy Tourney is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party, Mario Party 2, and Mario Party Superstars.
Overview
From their separate large wooden frames, each player competes to flip over every tile on their frame using a Koopa Shell within 30 seconds.[1][2][3] As a player tilts their frame, the Koopa Shell slides around, revealing more of a graphic of a coin in Mario Party, a head of a Toad surrounded by a ribbon in Mario Party 2, or either a Super Star, a Super Mushroom, or a Fire Flower in Mario Party Superstars.[4] If the player gets hit by a Koopa Shell, they cannot move temporarily. The player that uncovers their photograph first wins.
The minigame can be bought at the Mini-Game House in Mario Party for 350 coins or from Woody in Mario Party 2 for 50 coins.
