Peek-n-Sneak is a Bowser minigame found in Mario Party Advance.
In Mario Party Advance[]
In the Shroom City mode, the minigame is played at Bowser Pad, during the Bestest Buds quest, after the player's character gives Bowser the item that he wants, a Ring. Once the player wins the minigame, both it and the Gaddget Shroom Bloom are unlocked.
Opening[]
The player's character runs into the area where the minigame takes place. When the minigame starts, the character instantly runs over to the first pillar.
Gameplay[]
The object is for the player's character to sneak past every Koopa Kid by walking past them while they are not looking. The player's character can hide stay behind the pillars to hide from the Koopa Kids, although the minigame gives them a time limit of only 99 seconds to sneak past every Koopa Kid. While sneaking past a Koopa Kid, the player's character can either just walk past them or dash past them. Red Koopa Kids turn around more quickly, and repeat the action more quickly than the green and blue Koopa Kids. Meanwhile, blue Koopa Kids will stay on the lookout for longer than the green and red Koopa Kids. There are wider spaces with a Bowser Statue between pillars, and some of them have two Koopa Kids on lookout. Sneaking past ten Koopa Kids rewards the player with a 20-second time bonus. Once the player's character manages to sneak past 30 Koopa Kids within the time limit, the player wins at the minigame. However, if one of the Koopa Kids sees the player's character running by, the minigame ends in a loss.
