The [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Marios']] boss fight against [[Donkey Kong]] in [[Room 4-DK]], referred to as '''Boss Game 4''', plays similarly to Boss Game 2 in [[Room 2-DK]], with several key differences. The spiked platform Donkey Kong is on sways left and right in an arc, rather than moving back and forth along a line. When Donkey Kong slams the spiked platform, [[Spiked Ball]]s drop from its position, which destroy a Mini Mario upon contact. To defeat Donkey Kong, the player must shoot Mini Marios from a cannon, so that they either hit Donkey Kong directly or reach the Donut Blocks on the top of the screen, which can fall and damage Donkey Kong. However, if a Mini Mario reaches the top of the screen, but does not land on a [[girder]] or Donut Block, it will fall and break, regardless of whether it touches Donkey Kong. If all of the player's Mini Marios are destroyed, the [[Game Over|game is over]]. After 6 hits, Donkey Kong is defeated and flees to [[Lava Dome]].
