Motor Rooter is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 3 and Mario Party Superstars.

Overview

Gameplay from Mario Party Superstars

Each player rides a Koopa Shell-like hovercraft inside of a pipe, which players can move all around in. There are some Dash Panels along the way. The only obstacles are Amps, represented by lightning bolts on the mini-map, that briefly slow and shock any player who drives into them. The first player who makes it to the end wins. In the European version of Mario Party 3 only, if no one reaches the end on time, it is a draw.

The minigame title is a play on "Roto-Rooter."
