Jump the Gun is a 2-vs.-2 minigame found in Mario Party 6 and Super Mario Party Jamboree. Its name comes from a phrase that refers to when a person does something prematurely.

There are only aesthetic differences between daytime and nighttime.

Introduction

The player mounting the cannon fires a Bullet Bill into the first target. The other player then jumps onto it.

Gameplay

One character on each team controls a cannon that shoots out Bullet Bills. The other character then has to use those Bullet Bills as small platforms to get to the finish line. Players can shoot a Bullet Bill at only one of the targets and can shoot only one at a time. If the other player falls off the stage, a Lakitu lifts them back onto the last Bullet Bill they stood upon. The player who reaches the goal point first wins for their team. In Mario Party 6, if five minutes pass, the minigame ends in a tie.

Ending

The winners perform their victory animations at the goal point. In Mario Party 6, if five minutes pass, everybody does their losing animation.
