Creepy Cavern
Creepy Cavern is a cave-based board in Mario Party 3. It is inhabited by Whomps (playing their own game of Mario Party), Thwomps, Podoboos, and a Dorrie. Action Time happens when one of the players is stopped by a Thwomp and accepts its offer to ride on the mine cart for five coins. Players had to time their jump to get on, or they would miss the ride to the other side of the board. The mine carts also came when players landed on a Happening Space that was on the tracks. In this case, Thwomp rode the cart to the other side, chasing all players in the way to that side as well. Another feature of this board was the Whomp King, who was always sleeping on a rock above the lava flow in the middle of the board. He blocked either the right path (that led upward), or the left path (that led to Boo). Players could land on a ? Space in front of him to make him turn over, but that is also achieved if a player gives him a certain item that he wants (Mushroom, Poison Mushroom, Skeleton Key, etc).
In Story Mode, the human player goes up against 3 opponents and battles here to get the Courage Star Stamp.
The background music of this board is a remix of the underground level theme from Super Mario Bros.
