The minigame opens with the players first falling into the scene, then the blocks.


==Gameplay==
During gameplay, players compete to get a [[Toad]] figure on a spinning block five times; each time, this extends their platform by one level though also causes the block to move faster. Getting either a [[Piranha Plant]], a [[Chain Chomp]], or a [[Koopa Kid|Baby Bowser]] figure stuns the player temporarily. The first player to fulfill the objective wins, though if nobody does after some time, the result is a draw.
Players have to hit the spinning blocks and get a [[Toad]] face each time. Each time a player gets a Toad face, the spinning block gets a little faster. The floor below them also rises one level. If one of the players hits the spinning block and gets something other than a Toad face, the player gets stunned for a moment: Getting a [[Piranha Plant]] figure causes it to bash the player once, getting a [[Chain Chomp]] figure causes it to bash the player twice, and getting a [[Bowser]] figure causes [[Koopa Kid|Baby Bowser]] to come down and smash the player. The first player who gets five Toad faces wins. If nobody does so within a certain time limit, the minigame ends in a draw.
