Mario Party

Mole-it! is a 2-vs.-2 mini-game in Mario Party 6. It is one of the mini-games to have differences between the daytime and nighttime.

Opening[]

In the daytime variation, several Monty Moles peek their heads out of every pipe, then retreat into them. In the nighttimare variaition, two Monty Moles peek their heads out. The players attempt to ground-pound them but are unsuccessful.

Gameplay[]

The minigame's objective slightly differs between the day and night variation. At daytime, the pipes are on the top of the screen, and the object for both teams, consisting of two characters, is to jump up at the Monty Moles, each worth one point. However, Piranha Plants also emerge from the pipes, and they have to be avoided because touching one stuns the player's character temporarily. There are also Golden Monty Moles, each worth three points. Whoever has more points when the 30-second time limit is up is the winner.

In the nighttime version, the pipes are on the ground, and the Monty Moles instead have to be ground-pounded.

Ending[]

In the daytime variation, Monty Moles emerge from the pipes on the winning team's side as the two teammates perform their respective victory animation, while Piranha Plants emerge from the losing team's pipes as they perform their respective losing animation.

In the nighttime variation, both members on the losing team perform their respective losing animation while surrounded by Piranha Plants on both sides, and the winning teammates perform their respective victory animation while Monty Moles peek out of the pipes between them. If the minigame ends in a tie, Monty Moles emerge from the pipes on each team's side as every character performs their respective losing animation.

Controls[]

  • Control Stick: Move
  • A Button: Jump (at daytime)
  • A Button (while in midair): Ground-pound (only used in the nighttime variation)

In-game text[]

  • Rules (Day): Jump to smack the Monty Moles as they emerge from pipes overhead. The team with the most points wins!
  • Rules (Night): Ground-pound Monty Moles that peek out of pipes. The team with the most points wins!
  • Advice: Monty Moles are worth one point. Golden Monty Moles are worth three points. Piranha Plants will temporarily stun you.

Trivia[]

  • Mole-it! is one of the minigames featured in the Miracle Book, on the page "Poppin' Out of the Pipe." It shows Toad playing the nighttime variation, and activating the page replaces the Monty Moles and Piranha Plant with Wario and Waluigi, to Toad's surprise.
