Limbo Dance is a 1-Player minigame in Mario Party.

Overview[edit]

Limbo Dance opens with a Toad playing tribal drums.

The player has thirty seconds to limbo under every Limbo Stick, featured in blue, yellow, and red varieties in decreasing height. The player character can bend back slightly as they move forward or adjust themselves upward in place instead. The player loses if either they bend too far down or unsuccessfully pass under a stick.

If the player reaches the finish line, they win ten Coins and do their winning pose. If the player loses, they fall on their back, shaking their legs while trying to get up. If time runs out, they do a losing pose.

Limbo Dance costs 50 Coins to buy at the Mini-Game House.

Controls[edit]
