Splatterball is a Bowser mini-game in Mario Party Advance.
In Mario Party Advance[]
In Shroom City mode, Splatterball is played after the player scores soccer balls past Bowser at Bowser Stadium, during the quest Goal Tenderizer. When the player wins at the minigame, they receive both it and the Gaddget Snooze Ewes as a reward.
Gameplay[]
The object is to shoot all thirty Koopa Kid using a paintball gun within the 99-second time limit. The paintball gun can hold up to five shots at a time. After every shot is fired, the player must hold to reload, or whenever desired. Koopa Kids have varying behavior, as some of them hide, some move to another side, and sometimes one of them pops up and down. If the player accidentally hits a Toad picture, they lose one bullet slot for the remainder of the minigame, increasing the difficulty. A picture of a stopwatch may rarely appear, and shooting it gives the player twenty extra seconds. If the player's character fails to defeat every Koopa Kid on time, the player loses at the minigame.
