Treadmill Grill

Template:Minigame-infobox Treadmill Grill is an 4-player minigame that is found during the events in the Nintendo 64 game Mario Party 3.

Introduction

At the beginning of the minigame, the blue Podoboos on the ground appeared surrounding the playfield one by one. The four Players are on rows of conveyor belts, each of them starring at another player. Then the minigame starts.

Gameplay

The objective of the minigame is that the players attempt to knock all the remaining players off the four rows of conveyor belts within the time limit of 30 seconds.

During physical gameplay, the players can jump on the players, attack by punching, or use Ground Pound to stun the other players. If a player is stunned up a single jump or attack, the player can barely move and jump. If a player is stunned by a Ground Pound, the player cannot move at a brief moment, a chance that the player will lose the minigame.

In addition, the four rows of conveyor belts will move either at the left side or the right side varying the speed, the conveyor belts' direction will change in a brief moment. Another obstacle the players have to avoid is that the red Podoboos occasionally get on the conveyor belts attached, attempting to chase to one of the players. The Podoboos can also disappear if they fall either at the left or right side while caught in the conveyor belt. The limit of Podoboos on the play-field would be three Podoboos. The last gimmick used in this minigame is that the four rows of conveyor belts decrease its size as the time passes, making the gameplay challenging.

If one of the players successfully knocked the remaining players onto the blue Podoboos before the time is up, he or she wins. If the time is up and the remaining players are still on the conveyor belts, it is considered a tie.
