| Paper Jam description | Use the Circle Pad to steer your characters around the spiral. You can press Y to dive faster. Pass through as many rings as possible, and try to collect all the enemies. You collect enemies simply by ploughing through them on your way down. The same goes for the rings. Aim for them and dive through! At the bottom, press A just as you reach each platform to punch through. The number of rings you hit determines how many platforms there will be at the end. |
Trio Whirligig is the third Trio Attack in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. It becomes available for Paper Mario to use after completing all initial Paper Toad missions in the Mount Brrr Lakitu Info Center. It costs 11 BP and targets all enemies at once.
Once the attack is initiated, a giant cylinder appears with the enemies floating down inside as pieces of paper. After pressing 
, Paper Mario folds into a propeller, which Mario and Luigi grab onto.
Making their way down, the player has to move them around the cylinder with 
to catch the enemies and pass through the middle of the rings on the descent. Each ring speeds up their fall, and they then need to press 
to blast through the paper platforms at the bottom. Smashing through one gets an OK rating, two a Good Rating, three a Great Rating and pressing at the very bottom an Excellent rating (setting the enemies on fire in the process, however, this does not do critical damage to paper enemies). Pressing in the process of falling down will give a speed boost to dive down. In Attackathon, the boost will give the player bonus points for each dive the player does.
Attackathon
In the Attackathon, rather than hitting enemies on the way down, the player must aim for papers with power-up symbols on them while avoiding Fire Bars and tornados. A Mushroom card is worth 30 points, a Fire Flower is worth 40, and a Super Star is worth 80. Pressing Y to accelerate Paper Mario also gives a 10 point bonus, and extra points are given for smashing through the paper platforms. Running into a tornado causes the player to lose all of their panels and counts as a miss. The game ends if the player misses more than two panels, runs into a Fire Bar, or does not time the button presses for the platforms.
