Throw Me a Bone

Template:Minigame-infobox Throw Me a Bone is a 4-player Minigame in Mario Party 6. Its name comes from the expression "throw me a bone", which is a plaintive request for someone to go easy on or aid the speaker.

There are only aesthetic changes between the daytime and the nighttime.

There is a Miracle Book page featuring this minigame, called "Fetch".

Introduction

The camera stars out with a front view of the player on the Chain Chomp. It then rotates around to behind the player as the screen splits into four sections.

Gameplay

Players are attempting to toss bones to make the Chain Chomps they ride upon move forward, toward the goal. A purple arrow moving left and right appears in front of the player before he or she tosses a bone. Pressing A stops the arrow. He or she then tosses a bone in that direction, which the Chain Chomp chases the bone. If the Chain Chomp bumps into a column, the Chain Chomp and player are temporarily stunned. The first one to cross the finish line wins.

Ending

There are two possible endings. The first involves the winner preforming his or her victory animation with the Chain Chomp behind him or her. The second involves the winner preforming the animation as a bone is thrown across the screen from off screen; a Chain Chomp then races after it.
