Lunar-tics is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 6. Its name is a pun on the word "lunatics."

Introduction[edit]

The players jump from a rocket, activating their jetpacks.

Gameplay[edit]

The object of the game is to land on the landing pad (apparently on the moon, as indicated by the minigame's title) as closely as possible to the moment the timer reaches 0.00. Each player has a jetpack. If they press and hold A Button, they fall slower. The player with the time closer to 0.00 wins, regardless of whether the timer went past zero.

If a player holds down A Button until 3.51 seconds are left on the timer and then lets go, they land with exactly 0.00 remaining.

Ending[edit]

  • A Button – Fire thrusters

In-game text[edit]
