Pitifall is a luck-based Duel minigame found in Mario Party 6. Its name is a portmanteau of "pitiful" and "pitfall."
Gameplay
The goal of the minigame is to swing from a rope and land on the platform that the players cannot see. Three Shy Guys are holding three ropes. Both players have to pick one of them. The players swing, holding on to the ropes and letting go, which is done automatically. If both players fail to land on the platform, a Fly Guy randomly picks up one of the players, and that player wins.
In the PAL version of Mario Party 6, Pitifall does not appear in Endurance Alley.
