Bowser's Painball is a Bowser minigame in Mario Party 10.
Layout[]
The Team Mario players are in a pinball game controlled by Bowser. There are also overhead bumpers and a moving wall.
Gameplay[]
The object for Bowser has 30 seconds to shoot Spiked Balls to harm the team members. Meanwhile, the members of Team Mario have to avoid Spiked Balls within that time limit. If a character gets hit by a Spiked Ball, they lose a heart. At first, there is only one Spiked Ball, and after about five seconds, a second ball appears from the left. If a ball falls into the center, the same one reappears after a few seconds. Whoever is controlling Bowser can actually shake the Wii U GamePad to briefly stun the other players, leaving them more open to being hit by Spiked Balls.
