In ''Mario Party 9'', a new form of gameplay was introduced in this game, retiring the old format seen in the prior eight titles: players move all at once through the board in a vehicle (a car in Toad Road, a magic carpet in Boo's Horror Castle and a legged machine in Bob-omb Factory, for example), still taking turns rolling, moving from a starting point to an ending point. Instead of rolling a die with a 1-10 on it like in the previous games, players can only roll a dice block with a 1-6 on it; however, there are other dice blocks that can be collected, which includes a dice block that allows a 1-10 roll. Instead of trying to collect coins to buy stars, players receive [[Mini Star]]s if they pass by them. While doing so, players must also try to avoid [[Mini Ztar]]s, which deduct | In ''Mario Party 9'', a new form of gameplay was introduced in this game, retiring the old format seen in the prior eight titles: players move all at once through the board in a vehicle (a car in Toad Road, a magic carpet in Boo's Horror Castle and a legged machine in Bob-omb Factory, for example), still taking turns rolling, moving from a starting point to an ending point.

While doing so, players must also try to avoid [[Mini Ztar]]s, which deduct her or his current amount of Mini Stars. The player who collects the most Mini Stars by the end of the game is declared the winner. | ||
New minigame types are introduced in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series, one example being 1 vs. 2 minigames against [[Bowser Jr.]] Unlike in previous games, players do not compete in minigames after every player has moved, instead only when a minigame is triggered from the space that is landed upon.

Also, when receiving dice blocks, a minigame may pop up after as well. Unlike previous ''Mario Party'' games, where often only the winner(s) of a minigame receives a reward, all [[minigames]] are ranked from first to last place and generally all players receive Mini Stars, with players in a higher position earning more Mini Stars. | ||
During a party, there are two board events that are required to occur before advancing: Captain Events and Boss Battles. The former occurs whenever a player arrives on a Captain Event Space. The event differs for each board, but they all allow the players to earn more Mini Stars, though the player that has started the event always has some form of control over the event, putting him or her in an advantage state. As for Boss Battles, there are two Boss Battle Spaces on every board, one near a fortress and one at the end. During the Boss Battle minigames, players must work together to defeat a boss while attempting to increase their own individual scores, as the player with the highest score wins the minigame, which gives more Mini Stars than normal. | During a party, there are two board events that are required to occur before advancing: Captain Events and Boss Battles.
