Party Tent
The Party Tent is the main attraction of the Star Carnival in Mario Party 8. It appears in the lower right of the carnival and is the second biggest tent. In this tent, characters can play on the six boards (DK's Treetop Temple, Goomba's Booty Boardwalk, King Boo's Haunted Hideaway, Shy Guy's Perplex Express, Koopa's Tycoon Town and Bowser's Warped Orbit) and play as all twelve (fourteen counting the unlockable) characters. Players can't play as Miis though.
The players choose between three game types: Battle Royale, Tag Battle, and Duel Battle. In Battle Royale, it is everyone for themselves. (1 on 1 on 1 on 1) In Tag Battle players choose two teams of two and go head to head. In a Duel Battle two players play against each other and play duel minigames. The boards become smaller and have different objectives than usual (we'll detail that in the Boards section). Mini-games do not occur between turns, but you will have access to Challenge Mini-games, which you won't find in other modes, provided you land on the right spaces. Turns usually last only 30 to 60 seconds each, providing a nice quick game.
