mocha - Retry Whole Test

Is there a way to retry an entire test case if any test suite within it fails?

I have tried using this.retries() but for some reason whenever my test fails, it just stops after one run. Using it in a specific test suite works but it gives me false positives (test passes even though it's on the wrong screen). I've also tried using the retries option but it also stopped after one failed run.

I'm using Appium with MochaJS and WebdriverIO to test an Android app.
