== | ==Gameplay== | ||
In ''Mario Party'', the minigame takes place inside a chapel with stained glass windows. The team players (who are the pins) must avoid being hit by a [[Green Shell]], while the other player has to bowl and control the shell to knock over as many of the team players as possible. If the solo player knocks over a normal pin, they get a [[Coin]]. If the player's shell touches the sides or reaches the end of the lane without knocking over any pins, the minigame ends in a "Miss!" If a player's pin gets hit by the shell, the bowler takes five Coins from the player. If all the pins are knocked over, the announcer says, ''"Strike!"'' | |||
In ''Mario Party 2'', there are some changes to the minigame. This time, the minigame is set on top of a canyon during a sunset. The solo player must knock over all the opponents, and has a chance to throw a second shell. This variation has no side barriers, and the solo player does not win coins from the players they knock down. | |||
In both versions, there are several variations on the bowling "lane" path. | |||
In the [[Mini-Game Coaster]], the human player is always the solo player. | |||
In ''Mario Party'', the minigame can be purchased from the [[Mini-Game House]] for 350 Coins. In ''Mario Party 2'', the minigame can be purchased from [[Woody]] for 100 Coins. | |||
