La Bomba is a 1-vs.-3 minigame in Mario Party 7.

Layout[]

The minigame takes place in a factory that ships Bob-ombs.

Opening[]

The solo character is standing on a conveyor belt, and they ground-pound above one of the attached boxes, dropping a Bob-omb into the area with the team of three.

Gameplay[]

The solo character has to try and drop Bob-ombs on each of the three team members to eliminate them. Meanwhile, the team members have to avoid the Bob-ombs and the three spiked spinners on the stage. The large conveyor belts carry boxes in different directions, and the solo character must ground-pound the switches to open the boxes and release the Bob-ombs inside; gray boxes hold only one Bob-omb, green boxes hold two, and red boxes hold four. The Bob-ombs either walk in place or actively chase one of the team members. If a team member either touches a spinner, gets caught within a Bob-omb explosion, or a Bob-omb lands onto them, they are eliminated. If the solo character eliminates all of their opponents within 30 seconds, they win, but if there is at least one team member left when the time limit expires, the team wins.
