The Great Deflate

The Great Deflate is a 2 vs. 2 mini-game that appears in Mario Party 4.

Gameplay[]

The Great Deflate takes place on a serene beach with two giant inflatable Thwomps. The characters will work together as a duo to try and deflate the Thwomp by Ground Pounding on it. The higher in the air the character jumps, the more air the inflatable Thwomp will lose. The team that deflates all of their air out of their Thwomp first will win the mini-game.
