Skateboard Scamper
Template:Minigame-infobox Skateboard Scamper is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party and Mario Party 2.
Gameplay
Both versions look different, but concept and controls are completely alike. In the Mario Party version, the players have to skate on a bridge on a lava pit, while the bridge goes down into the pit and Thwomps try to slow down the players as they run away. The players can grab Coins along the way. The first player to reach the goal wins.
The Mario Party 2 version involves the players being chased by a Boo, who escapes from a photograph. It also involves collecting Coins, so even those who get caught can get a chance to get Coins. The players need to watch out for vertically moving sections of the floor. The first one who gets to the light source wins, eliminating Boo in the process.
In the Mini-Game Coaster in Mario Party 2, the human player must be the first to reach the light source to win.
Controls
– Jump
(Repeatedly) – Skate
