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 electrocute the player who drives into them. The first player who makes it to the end wins. In British English releases only, if no one reaches the end on time, it is a draw.

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