Warp Pipe Dreams is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 7. It takes place in a square maze that has Warp Pipes in it.

Overview[edit]

The opening shows the Warp Pipe goal platform first before switching to the players' view.

The minigame involves both players having to race through a maze of Warp Pipes. Both players are in separate mazes, with the first player having to go through red Warp Pipes and the second player out of blue Warp Pipes. However, one red and one blue Warp Pipe each lead to the larger green Warp Pipe, and the first player to exit from it, and the maze by extension, wins. If neither player escapes after some time, a tie occurs.

In-game text[edit]

  • Rules"Head for the goal by jumping in and out of Warp Pipes."

Naming[edit]

The title is a portmanteau of "Warp Pipe" and "pipe dreams," fanciful yet unrealistic hopes for things to come.
