Coconut Conk is a 1-vs-3 minigame in Mario Party 3 and Mario Party Superstars.

Overview

Gameplay from Mario Party Superstars

The team players ground-pound coconut trees, trying to drop coconuts on to the solo player, who moves around in a barrel slowly. If a team player is ground-pounded, they are flattened temporarily. If a coconut hits the solo player, the team players win, but if the solo player dodges coconuts until the end, they win.

Coconut Conk is played in Stages 2 and 5 of the Trio Challenge in Mt. Minigames. In Stage 2, the team players are humans battling a solo player controlled by a CPU at hard difficulty, and the rank requirements include Rank A by hitting a rival within 10 seconds; Rank B by either hitting within 20 seconds or the CPU doing so within 10 seconds; Rank C by either hitting before time runs out or the CPU doing so within 20 seconds; or Rank D by scoring a hit before time runs out. In Stage 5, the solo player is controlled by the solo player, who battles CPU opponents of the Hard difficulty. The only Stage 5 ranking is Rank A, which is achieved by winning.
