Memory Match (Mario Party)

Memory Match is a 1-Player minigame that appears in Mario Party.

Introduction
The minigame takes places in a forest where there are various trees, some grown and some cut; certain areas of overgrown grass that contain flowers; and stone statues placed in the grass. There are nine panels on the ground, each marked with a question mark hiding the object image. With the player standing near the panel in the middle, the minigame then starts.

Gameplay
The objective of the minigame is to match all four pairs of pictures within 45 seconds. The player must hip-drop to flip one of the nine panels to reveal the image. If the player successfully matches two of the same panels, they receive two Coins. However, if the player hip-drops two different panels, both of the panels will flip back after a few seconds. Matching objects include a red mushroom, a green mushroom, a Fire Flower, and a green Koopa Shell. The remaining panel contains a Bowser icon that stuns the player if they hip-drop it. If the player successfully matches four pairs of tiles before time runs out, they win ten Coins. If the player matches three pairs or fewer, they receive the total number of Coins from pairing up two of the images.

The minigame can be purchased from the Mini-Game House for 50 Coins.

Ending
If the player matches at least one pair of tiles, they do a winning pose. If time is up before they match a pair of tiles, they do a losing pose.
