Tragic Carpet Ride (known as Mind Over Mattermouth in the British English version) is a General minigame from Mario Party: Island Tour.

Introduction[edit]

The players enter a room on a carpet, and then the floor around the carpet dissipates.

Gameplay[edit]

Mattermouths enter the room and start to eat the floor away. The players must avoid falling into the holes that the Mattermouths leave behind. If a player is touched by a Mattermouth, they are knocked back and stunned for a short time. The players that are left standing win.

Controls[edit]

  • Circle Pad – Move
  • A Button – Jump

In-game text[edit]

  • RulesAmerican English: "Dodge the Mattermouths and avoid falling off the carpet for as long as possible."
  • RulesBritish English: "Try to survive for as long as possible without falling through the floor."

Naming[edit]

"Tragic Carpet Ride" is a pun on "magic carpet ride" and "tragic".

"Mind Over Mattermouth" combines "mind over matter" and "Mattermouth".
