This minigame's object is to catch the scoops ice cream that fall from above by moving to where their shadow is. The player with the biggest ice cream cone at the end of the thirty-second time limit (and therefore, the one who caught the most ice cream) is the winner.

As the player's pile of ice cream becomes bigger, it will be harder for him or her to walk and turn, making it more difficult to catch the falling scoops of ice cream. At the end of the minigame, the winning player's ice cream cone shrinks to an edible size for a reward along with the ten coins.
