Free Play

Free Play mode lets you jump straight into any minigame in Mario Party 9’s massive library—no muss, no fuss.

Simply pick a minigame category from the four tabs along the top of the screen to view the entire catalogue of minigames that fall into that particular group.

Move the cursor across all those little screens, and each minigame’s name will pop up in a word bubble. Choose the one you want to play, configure the number of players, and start partying!

Free Play mode shows you how many minigames there are to explore, and it helps you keep track of the ones you’ve played.

Any time you play a certain minigame in one of Mario Party 9’s myriad of game modes, that minigame will receive a check mark in Free Play mode to indicate that you’ve played it before.

This lets you quickly find the games you’ve yet to play!
