Catchy Tunes is a 4-Player minigame that is found in Mario Party 7.

Overview[edit]

Musical symbols fall on the keys of a xylophone before the game cuts to the arena in full with the players.

Two players are placed on the upper portion of the stage between a pair of xylophones, while the other two players are placed on piano keys on the lower portion of the stage; those two players must jump to access the upper portion.

The goal is to collect five different musical symbols that fall from above within the time limit. If a musical symbol hits the ground, it will disappear. The players can jump on each other to briefly inhibit their movement and jump height. The first player to collect all five different symbols wins. If nobody does so within the time limit, the minigame ends in a tie.

Controls[edit]

  • Control Stick – Move
  • A Button – Jump

In-game text[edit]

  • Rules"Run around and collect the falling musical symbols. You must collect one of each kind to win."
  • Advice"Watch the shadows to predict where the symbols will fall. You can also jump on other players to stun them!"

  • It is possible for more than one player to win, though the task is difficult since the players need to collect their last notes almost simultaneously. If successfully done, the winning players will stand in front of the losing player(s) (except if all four players win) in the ending.[1]
