Template:Spotlight-notice Template:Minigame-infobox Coin Cache is a coin-collecting 4-Player minigame found in Mario Party 5.
Intro
The four players exit Princess Peach's Castle in the background and run to the stage itself.
Gameplay
The goal of this minigame is to collect as many coins as possible by smashing the Brick Blocks that contains them. Despite what the rules states, all the players win the minigame provided that they collect one coin..
There are three types of blocks in this minigame:
- The first one is the usual Brick Block that contains nothing and is destroyed when hit.
- The second one contains a single coin and transforms into a Used Block when hit.
- The third type contains multiple coins. It may be hit until it is empty, turning into a Used Block.
A total of three rows of Brick Blocks move from left to right; and can also be used as platforms to reach higher blocks. The rows of blocks stop moving every now and then and start moving in the opposite direction a few seconds later. The players can use this to climb to higher rows of bricks. If players step off one side of the screen, they will appear on the other side in a similar way to Mario Bros. gameplay.
Ending
The players perform their victory animations.
