Unlike other handheld ''Mario Party'' games, ''Mario Party DS'' features the same gameplay style as the series' home console entries. Up to four players take turns to roll a [[Dice Block]] that shows numbers from 1-10, which decides how far players move across boards. The goal is to acquire the most [[Star (Mario Party series)|Stars]] through the conditions decided on each of the boards. After all players have had their turn, the type of [[minigame]] is determined by what color space the player lands on (red or blue). If the player landed on a green, duel or friend space, the player's color is randomly red or blue. Landing on a Bowser space results in the player's color turning red. For instance, if one player lands on a red space while three other players land on a blue space, a 1 vs. 3 minigame is held, with the red player on the solo side and the three players on the other side. The players then engage in a minigame, and whoever wins the minigame earns 10 coins.

When a Battle Minigame occurs, all players pay a certain number of Coins into a "pot" before the minigame, with any players who have insufficient Coins only paying what they have on them. After the minigame, each player gets back 65, 30, 5, or 0 percent of the Coins in the pot, depending on where they rank in the minigame. If the Coins cannot be divided up equally, the leftovers are awarded to a random player. The number of Coins a player must pay is determined by the formula [current turn number × 2]; for example, if the Battle Minigame is triggered in Turn 7, all players must pay 14 Coins.
If the combined total dice roll for all four players for the turn is a multiple of 10, a Battle Minigame is triggered instead.

The turn ends afterward, the process repeating until the set number of turns have passed. The game ends once the set number of turns have passed, and the total number of Stars and coins the players have collected are tallied, Stars being the primary factor for rankings while coins are the tie-breakers.
