Big Popper is a single-player minigame which appears in Mario Party Advance.

Opening[]

The player's character is standing in the center of the area as a bubble descends. They immediately walk over and fan the bubble into the spike, popping it.

Gameplay[]

Using a fan, the player has to make the bubbles move to the spikes to earn points. Fanning more bubbles into the spikes consecutively increases the point multiplier on the spiked wheel; it starts at "×1" by default, but it can increase to "×3," then to "×5," then to "×7" and lastly to "×10." However, the multiplier decreases over time if more bubbles are not popped before. If a bubble hits the ground, the player loses ten points.

In the Shroom City mode, the object is to earn 70 points within 60 seconds to win. In the Mini-Game Attack mode, the player must reach 200 points to clear the minigame. In Play Land mode, the sky turns orange, where more bubbles fall faster, and amongst them are red bubbles that increase the remaining time.

Controls[]

  • +Control Pad: Move left or right
  • A Button: Swing fan

Flavor text[]

  • Rules: Fan the falling bubbles into the spikes. Pop 'em to earn points!
