At the beginning of the mini-game, the camera will show the bottom of the spinning platform. The camera will move up onto the top of the spinning platform as it shows the players in that scene. The players at the beginning are jumping onto each rotating platform to the start area as the platforms spin depending what way it will move.

The players attempt to try to reach the end of the obstacle course as the players have to move quickly. The players will have to jump onto each spinning platform to try to reach the end of the level. Additionally, the spinning platforms define on which way the platform will spin and the size of the platform. If the players are not quick enough, the spinning platforms will start to level down at the beginning of the obstacle course. Another obstacle is that there are [[Bullet Bill]]s that appear from the right side of the screen that zoom by to the left, attempting to knock the players is possible. If the player falls down onto the ground, the player will instead lose. The players who at least reach the end of the obstacle course wins as it is possible that more than one player will win, or a tie if none make it.
The four players must reach the end of an obstacle course consisting of multiple rotating platforms, while avoiding [[Bullet Bill]]s being fired at them. The platforms rotate either clockwise or counterclockwise and vary in color and size: Yellow ones are smallest, pink ones are medium-sized, and blue ones are largest. Each platform features white arrows that indicate the direction of its rotation. As the rotating platforms go offscreen, they lower to the ground. The Bullet Bills fire at the players who are ahead in the lead. Players can jump on their opponents to stun them temporarily. Players who are hit by Bullet Bills, fall off the platforms and touch the ground, or stay on platforms that lower are eliminated. In addition, players cannot jump on Bullet Bills to defeat them. Players who reach the end of the obstacle course win. If all players are eliminated, the minigame ends in a tie.
