Template:Minigame-infobox Glacial Meltdown is a Battle minigame in Mario Party 8.

Introduction

The minigame opens with the 4 characters on an iceberg. When a Buzzy Beetle comes, they are scared by it. However, one of the characters knocks the Buzzy Beetle back into the ocean.

Gameplay

All of the characters are on a large chunk of ice, attempting to knock all the other players off. There is also a Lakitu floating above the iceberg who will drop Buzzy Beetles; although these Buzzy Beetles hurt characters, the Buzzy Beetles can prove themselves helpful in that jumping on them results in them retreating into their shell, which nearby players can kick into opponents. Whoever is the last one on the ice wins.

It is possible for all four characters to fall off the platform. If this happens, the player who last fell off will win the minigame.

There is a time limit of five minutes for this minigame, although the timer doesn't show until 30 seconds remain. If the time expires before 3 players fall, the remaining players win and will split all the coins in the pot.

Ending

The last player standing does a victory pose while all 3 other players are on separate icebergs farther away.

Alternate 1: If the last player standing falls in the water, he or she will pose their victory on the farther icebergs (next to the other three players that lost). Plus, since the winner poses his or her victory that far, their voice can barely be heard at that distance.

Alternate 2: If five minutes pass without 3 players falling, the remaining players will do their victory poses while the other players are on separate icebergs farther away.
