'''Barrel''', also known as '''Barrel Game'''<ref>Thomason, Steve. ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Player's Guide. Page 23.</ref> or '''Bink's Barrels''',<ref>Stratton, Stephen, and Levi Buchanan. ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 130.</ref> is a [[minigame]] hosted by [[Bink]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. In the [[S.S. Chuckola]], [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] are trying to find one of the pieces of the [[Beanstar]] that made its way into the ship. They notice a [[sailor]] taking the Beanstar piece into another room. However, a guard permits no entry unless the brothers can get a [[Membership Card (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|Membership Card]], explaining the cellar is too important as it contains all of the ship's [[Chuckola Cola (Mario & Luigi series)|Chuckola Cola]]. In another room, a skeleton named Bink offers them a job of pushing [[barrel]]s, as a minigame.


The minigame has a field of red and blue barrels in a 6x6 grid (in the remake, they also have patterns on their top areas). The objective is to slide the barrels so that an entire row or column is only one color, with the time limit of three minutes. The player uses {{button|Padleft}} and {{button|Padright}} on {{button|gba|Pad}} to move Mario, and {{button|Padup}} and {{button|Paddown}} to move Luigi. To slide the barrels, while holding {{button|gba|A}}, the player pushes {{button|Padup}} and {{button|Paddown}} to move Mario's columns, and {{button|Padleft}} and {{button|Padright}} to move Luigi's rows. When an entire line is cleared, the brothers earn one point, and can earn more points for each additional line cleared, with four points for two lines, and eight points for three lines, and even sixteen for four lines. As lines are cleared, Bink will throw in more barrels into the field for Mario and Luigi to work with. As the Bros. clear more lines, yellow barrels will be on the field along with the blue and red ones, and even green barrels should they clear even more lines.
The '''Barrel''' game is a minigame hosted by [[Bink]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. In the [[S.S. Chuckola]], [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] had to retrieve one of the pieces of the [[Beanstar]] that made its way into the ship. They notice a sailor taking the Beanstar piece into another room. However, a guard permits no entry unless the brothers can get a [[Membership Card]], explaining the cellar is too important as it contain all of the ship's [[Chuckola Cola]]. In another room, a skeleton named [[Bink]] who looks surprisingly like Donkey Kong offers them a job of pushing barrels, as a minigame.


Upon completion of the minigame with ten points or more, Bink gives the Mario Bros. a Membership Card, and the Bros. go back to the guard, who lets them pass. The player can play this game as much as they like before the S.S. Chuckola sets sail and becomes permanently inaccessible. It becomes available again in the [[Little Fungitown]] arcade, however, and can be played to earn [[bean|Hee Bean]]s.
The minigame has a field of colored barrels of red and blue in a 7 x 7 grid. The objective is to slide the barrels so that an entire row or column is only one color, with the time limit of three minutes. The player uses Left and Right on the Control Pad to move Mario, and Up and Down to move Luigi. To slide the barrels, while holding A, the player pushes Up and Down to move Mario's columns, and Left and Right to move Luigi's rows. When an entire line is cleared, the brothers earn one point, and can earn more points for each additional line cleared, with four points for two lines, and eight points for three lines, and even sixteen for four lines. As lines are cleared, Bink will throw in more barrels into the field for Mario and Luigi to work with. As the Bros. clear more lines, yellow barrels will be on the field along with the blue and red ones, and even green barrels should they clear even more lines.
==Rewards==
The Mario Bros. receive one point for every line matched, four points for a combo of two lines matched at once, eight points for a combo of three lines matched at once and sixteen points for a combo of four lines matched at once.

==Trivia==
*If the Mario Bros. score three lines at the same time, a small skeletal [[Chain Chomp]] will peek out from behind the crates on the bottom-right corner of the screen. Likewise, if they score four lines at the same time, a small skeletal man resembling a Stalfos from ''The Legend of Zelda'' for the [[NES]] will peek out from behind the crates on the bottom-right corner of the screen.
*If the Mario Bros. score many lines at the same time, a small skeletal [[Chain Chomp]] will peek out from behind the crates on the bottom-right corner of the screen.
*The music used for this minigame is a cover of the overworld theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
**In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the music is a remix of the mini-game theme from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''.
