Herbicidal Maniac is a 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 7. The minigame's name is a portmanteau of "homicidal maniac," which is a term that refers to a person with an insane desire to kill other people, and "herbicide," a chemical used to kill plants.
Introduction[edit]
Piranha Plants and bombs emerge from all the pipes and then go back in as the players' pipe platforms move up.
Gameplay[edit]
Two players on each team have to shoot all the Piranha Plants that pop out of the pipes. However, if a bomb is hit, many more Piranha Plants will appear, making it more difficult for the team to win. On each team, the first player has a round target cursor and the second player has a square one. If two teammates try to shoot the same target simultaneously, their projectiles will hit each other and be destroyed upon contact. When a team shoots all the Piranha Plants on its side, that team earns a point. The first team to earn three points wins. If both teams have the same score after a certain number of rounds, a tie occurs.
Ending[edit]
The winners do their winning animations, while the losers do their losing animations as their platforms are lowered. If the minigame ends in a tie, both teams do their losing poses while their platforms are lowered.
Controls[edit]
– Move cursor
– Fire
In-game text[edit]
- Rules – "Fire at the Piranha Plants when they emerge from the pipe. The first team to 3 points is the winner."
- Advice – "Whatever you do, don't hit the bombs! The resulting explosion will cause a Piranha Plant infestation!"
