Pipe Maze is a 1-vs-3 minigame from Mario Party.

Gameplay

In this minigame, there is a maze-like network of pipes, with four entrances and four exits. The solo player is given a Treasure Chest, which they must drop down one of the pipes.

It is extremely difficult to determine which pipe will lead to which player, because the maze is scrolled through rather quickly. There are lots of twists and turns in the maze, so the player must watch carefully and see which pipe leads where. The player can only hope that the chest makes it to their position.

The player who receives the Treasure Chest will receive all the coins from it, despite it being a 1-vs-3 minigame.
