The Beat Goes On

The Beat Goes On is a four-player minigame found in Mario Party 3. Its name of the minigame may be a reference to Sonny and Cher's song of the same name.

The minigame starts when the Shy Guys say the first four notes of a beat. Players have to copy the beat the Shy Guys made. From then on, each player adds notes to the beat on his or her turn after playing the existing beat in its entirety. If players input an incorrect beat or do not make a beat, the Shy Guys throw torches at them, kicking them out of the minigame. The last player remaining wins.
