'''Defuse or Lose''' is a 2-vs-2 [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]''. The minigame features the only appearance of [[King Bob-omb]] in ''Mario Party 5''. In the background are some big [[Bob-omb]]-shaped sculptures. Also surrounding the players is a big group of Bob-ombs.

==Introduction==
The game first shows a Bob-omb on the verge of exploding. Once it does, the three fuses attached to King Bob-omb begin to burn. The screen then zooms out and shows the sparks traveling across one team's set of fuses before the screen splits.

==Gameplay==
The objective of the game is to prevent the sparks on the fuses from reaching King Bob-omb. To do this, players on each team must [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] the three fuses, which follow a set trail. The fuses rekindle not too long after they are extinguished, so the players must ground-pound them again. A player can extinguish two sparks at once by ground-pounding them where the fuses intersect. If a team's spark reaches King Bob-omb, that team loses.

==Ending==

When one team loses, King Bob-omb explodes, making the team and Bob-ombs all fly away. In ''Mario Party 5'', the remaining team then perform their victory animations as the Bob-ombs clear the area.

It is possible to end this minigame in a draw. If both teams' sparks reach King Bob-omb at the same time, both King Bob-ombs will explode, sending both teams and their Bob-ombs flying. A rubble is created, smoking as "DRAW" appears on the screen.
