Abandon Ship is a mini-game that appears in Mario Party 2. It is classed as a free-for-all minigame and is unlocked when its name is selected on the minigame roulette wheel.

Gameplay[]

The characters are aboard a ship that suddenly hits a giant rock. They must climb up a large wooden pole in order to escape the sinking ship. While climbing up the pole, they must try and avoid the wooden pegs. The player must press the A button rapidly to make their character climb up the pole. They must also use the control stick to control the direction their character moves while climbing the pole. If a character gets stuck under one of the pegs, then they will lose time. Along the way, they will be able to collect extra coins that will be added to their total at the end of the mini-game. If a character gets caught in the water, then they will be eliminated from the mini-game and be dragged off by a Blooper. The character that reaches the top of the pole will win the mini-game. However, it is possible for all the characters to drown in the water before reaching the top, resulting in a Draw.

Cutscenes[]

Intro[]

As the minigame starts, the competitors ride a ship, which they crash into a rock. The ship sinks, and the competitors race to the poles which they start to climb.

Ending[]

The winner of the minigame celebrates his victory at the top of his pole as the announcer shouts, "Winner!"

Ties[]

Ties occur either if everyone reaches the top or they all get dunked into the water. In the former scenario, they all celebrate as the announcer shouts, " Winner!" In the latter scenario, she declares, "Draw!"

Etymology[]

Sailors may shout, "Abandon ship!" when they leave a ship, usually one that is too damaged to continue or overrun by enemies and/or hazards.
