Absent Minded

Template:Minigame-infobox Absent Minded is a free-for-all minigame in Super Mario Party. Its name comes from the term "absent-minded", referring to someone who's constantly inattentive or forgetful.

Introduction

The four players are gathered in an autumn setting. One random player tells a joke, prompting everyone to laugh. After the joke, Toadette then gestures the players to the monitor, starting the minigame.

Gameplay

In this minigame, players must pay attention to the characters on-screen and select which character is not present. To make things harder for the players, the screen may only display one character per frame, blur out the images, or rotate the tiles of the overall image. Players who answer incorrectly are yielded zero points, while the first player to answer correctly gets five points, the second player to do so gets three points, the third player gets two points, and the fourth player gets one point. After three rounds, the player with the most points wins.

On the Challenge Road, this is the ninth challenge of Chestnut Forest and the 19th challenge overall. The goal is to obtain 10 points for the normal challenge and 13 points for the Master Challenge.
