Thrash 'n' Crash
Template:Minigame-infobox Thrash 'n' Crash is a 1-vs.-3 minigame in the game Mario Party 8. In this minigame, three players on skateboards must try to avoid traps that are set off by the solo player.
Introduction
The trio rides in on skateboards, while the solo player follows them in a hovercraft.
Gameplay
The trio must turn the Wii Remote forward, backward, left, or right to move and avoid traps. The solo player points the remote at the screen and must point on a trap with the A button to activate it. When one of the three players falls victim to a trap, they're out. These traps include barrels, Bullet Bills, giant rolling wheels, as well as obstacles that are already set such as walls and Whomps.
Ending
If the trio wins, they ride under a bridge which the solo player stops at, and perform a small victory pose. If the solo player wins, he/she floats past the gate, leaving the trio behind, and performs a victory pose.
