Stacked Deck

Template:Minigame-infobox Stacked Deck is a Battle minigame found in Mario Party 3. The name comes from the term "stacked deck," which is a deck of cards that was specifically arranged so that one specific player automatically gets a good hand and wins the card game in question.

Introduction

The cards flip over, showing the players where all the six Toads, two Boos, and four Koopa Kids are on the cards, then the cards flip back over, and they all get shuffled in three possible orders. They are then placed in the playing field facedown.

Gameplay

The players are arranged in a line and take turns one at a time. Players have to ground-pound the cards that they pick, and whatever is on the card results in different things happening. A Toad card lets the player remain in the minigame until it is the player's next turn. A Boo card scares all the players, causing them to run away and the turn order to change. A Koopa Kid card kicks the player out of the game, eliminating the player. If a player does not ground-pound a card within 10 seconds, Koopa Kid is revealed for the same purpose. The last player standing wins.
