'''Trap Ease Artist''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. Its name is a pun on "trapeze artist."

The [[Miracle Book]] page "Golden Goomba" is based on this minigame. [[Wario]] and [[Waluigi]] are shown playing. Activating the page shows that Wario caught the titular Golden Goomba, and Waluigi caught [[Toadette]] instead.

In Party Mode in ''Mario Party 6'', this minigame is one of four minigames exclusive to daytime, the others being the [[Donkey Kong]] minigames.
==Introduction==
The introduction shows the first player dropping a red cage in a failed attempt to trap four [[Goomba]]s (one of them a [[Gold Goomba|Golden Goomba]]), thus showing how the minigame works.

==Gameplay==
The objective of the game is for each player to trap as many Goombas as they can with their cage. When many Goombas are under the cage's shadow, the player must press {{button|gcn|A}} to drop the cage, trapping the Goombas. The Goombas walk in random directions, and there is no way to determine when they will walk under a cage's shadow or how many will. Regular Goombas are worth one [[point]], and Golden Goombas are worth three points. If the player does not drop the cage before the time limit expires, it will drop automatically. After all of the cages have been dropped, the Goombas are released from them for the point tallying, and the player(s) with the most points win(s).

In the PAL version of ''Mario Party 6'', Trap Ease Artist does not appear in [[Endurance Alley]].

==Ending==
As soon as all players have dropped the cages, the remaining Goombas run away. The cages then open, and the Goombas inside leave them as the players' tallies increase. Afterwards, winners do winning poses while losers do losing poses.
