Introduction[edit]

Gameplay[edit]

Players must move vehicles whose wheels are not round: square wheels for the solo player's vehicle, and triangular wheels for the rivals' vehicle. The solo player moves their vehicle by pressing +Control Pad buttons in the exact order shown onscreen. The rivals move their vehicle by pressing One Button or Two Button one by one. If the solo player presses a wrong button, they must start another combination. If a rival presses a wrong button, they must simply try again. A total of five combinations must be done to reach the goal. The first side to reach the goal wins. If both sides reach the goal simultaneously or if neither side reaches it within a certain time limit, a tie occurs.

In-game text[edit]
