|'''''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars]]''''' retains many aspects of ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'', such as the graphics and the construction gimmick. It is based on the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong demo'' shown at {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} in 2014. The story becomes minimal, with Donkey Kong simply kidnapping Pauline to lure Mario and the Minis to a surprise party. Levels created in the editor could be shared online and commented on through Miiverse before it was discontinued. Along with the online functions, the game allows the concept of rewarding other players for their levels by tipping them stars, which form a collectible entity earned according to their performance in a level or by receiving them from other users. The tipper is in turn rewarded with stamps for offering a certain number of stars. In addition, players can use stars to buy new parts for the level editor in the [[Workshop Store]] and customize more levels based on the unlocked elements. | |'''''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars]]''''' retains many aspects of ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'', such as the graphics and the construction gimmick.

|'''''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]''''' is a spin-off that presents no story. Players have to use [[amiibo]] in order to play the game, and only certain ''Super Mario'' amiibo unlock Mini toys designed after the scanned amiibo. The game contains a general overworld map with levels that can be explored by any Mini. However, some of these levels conceal special exit doors or bonuses that only specific Minis can gain access to using their abilities. An exit attributed to a Mini directs it to a set of levels with mechanics that rely on the character's abilities. Due to the incorporation of amiibo, levels are only played with one Mini at the time, as opposed to managing multiple toys at once like in the previous games. In the same year of the game's release, a browser game on the [[Play Nintendo]] website emerged titled ''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge Trivia Quiz]]''. | |'''''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]''''' is a spin-off that presents no story.
