Give Me a Brake! is an Item minigame in Mario Party 2.

Overview[edit]

The minigame takes place in Western Land. A train moves around the player, who can pull the lever to stop it and receive the item pointed at by the arrow when the train stops. Once the player pulls the lever, the train takes a near-full lap to decelerate to a stop. If the arrow points to Baby Bowser, the player gets no items. If time runs out, the train simply stops by itself with the arrow pointing to Baby Bowser.

The minigame can be purchased from Woody for 400 Coins.

Controls[edit]

  • A Button – Pull brake

In-game text[edit]
