Quicksand Cache

"Watch the sand and keep moving so that you don't get sucked under!"

—Advice

Quicksand Cache is a 1-vs-3 mini-game in Mario Party 2 and later Mario Party Superstars.

Gameplay[]

In Quicksand Cache, the lone character in a Bowser Suit is required to spin the sand left and right to allow coins to fall into the center while the three other characters must collect the coins before the fall into the pit. If a character falls into the pit in the center, then they are eliminated and cannot collect any coins. They will, however, still receive the coins that they collected before falling in.
