Gameplay

The game starts with all players in a pit. Suddenly, Bowser appears and throws a large Spiked Ball into it, which players have to avoid. If one of the spheres crash into one of the players, that player is eliminated and is put in a cage. Eventually, the ball loses speed and stops. Bowser, infuriated, throws two more Spiked Balls into the pit. These new balls hit the first and cause it to start rolling again, and gameplay continues as before. Whoever survives until all the Spiked Balls stop moving is the winner. It is possible for everyone to survive until the end, in which case no one loses. If a sphere crashes into everyone, the minigame ends in a tie.

In Mario Party Superstars, during Free Play, the minigame immediately ends when there is one player left standing.[1] The minigame is also one of the possible minigames that can be played if the Bowser Minigame event is triggered when a player lands on a Bowser Space.
