Crazy Cutters is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party and Mario Party Superstars as well as a Battle minigame in Mario Party 2. It is singularized as Crazy Cutter in Mario Party.

Layout[]

The game takes place at a construction site. In Mario Party, the characters are each separated into their own section by traffic cones and yellow-and-black blockades arranged in a roughly vertical and roughly straight line.

The main focus is a fossilized Mario enemy in the center. In Mario Party, the shape is of either a Goomba, a Bob-omb, or a Boo. In Mario Party 2, the shape is either a Chain Chomp, a Cheep-cheep, or a Blooper. In Mario Party Superstars, the possible shapes are a combination of both games': a Boo, a Chain Chomp, or a Blooper. Additionally, the outline of the Chain Chomp is no longer a perfect circle in Mario Party Superstars.

Opening[]

The view is split into four, one for each player, and each has a shape of a character. The characters get on their jackhammers, and the minigame starts.

Gameplay[]

The Mario Party version of the minigame

The Mario Party version of the minigame

Players have to cut the fossilized characters as accurately as possible. If a player completely skews away from the shape, they will be stopped and essentially eliminated until the time runs out. Any player who gets at least 80 points successfully cuts out the shape and wins the minigame.

In Mario Party 2, any characters who cut the fossilized character with the most accuracy win.

In Mario Party Superstars, the minigame is primarily based on the version from Mario Party, but it uses the accuracy rules from Mario Party 2.

Ending[]

After all players have finished, the percentages are added up. The ground crumbles, and the cut shapes open, releasing the characters. Any player who cut the shape perfectly releasing the character does a winning pose.

In Mario Party, "MISS!" appears in the corner of any player who did not cut the shape perfectly.

In Mario Party Superstars, the camera zooms in on the winners. Additionally, the fossils make a character-relevant sound when they are released. If none of the players get above 80 points, the ground rumbles, but no characters are released. The winning player still does their victory animation.

Trivia[]

  • There is a rare glitch in the Mario Party 2 version of this minigame. The second someone moves when this glitch occurs, no matter which direction the player moves in, it causes the game to count that as a really small circle and causes that player to fail with zero points.
