Bob-ombic Plague

Template:Minigame-infobox Bob-ombic Plague is an 8-Player minigame in Mario Party 7. Its name is a pun on "Bubonic plague."

Introduction

A curtain spreads to show the eight players, facing away from one another, with their eyes closed and their hands on their chest. A light turns on and everyone puts their right hand up, open their eyes and jump to face each other, then the game begins.

Gameplay

The eight players pass around a Bob-omb. It will naturally turn red after a while, and the objective is to prevent the Bob-omb from exploding when it reaches the player. If the Bob-omb explodes in the player's hands, that player and other adjacent players will be blasted away. The game thus starts with eight players, then goes down to five, then two, and finally one. The last player standing wins. If two remaining players are on the same team, they both win.
