Toad in the Box
Template:Minigame-infobox Toad in the Box (stylized as TOAD in the Box) is a 4-Player minigame that appears in Mario Party 2. Its name is a pun on the toy jack-in-the-box.
Introduction
The players fall from above onto a stage, followed by the blocks. The music will then start.
Gameplay
Players have to hit the spinning blocks by getting a Toad face each time. Each time a player gets a Toad face, the spinning block gets a little faster. The floor below them also rises one level. If one of the players hits the spinning block and gets something other than a Toad face, the player gets stunned for a moment. The first player who gets five Toad faces wins.
The blocks also show figures of a Piranha Plant (which bashes the player once), a Chomp (which bashes the player twice), and Bowser (which causes Baby Bowser to come down and smash the player).
Controls
– Jump
