Tunnel of Lava! is a single-player Bowser minigame found in Mario Party 7. Its name is a pun on the carnival ride "Tunnel of Love".

Introduction

A Mechakoopa eats a key, then runs off into a door. Then, a large group of Mechakoopas emerges from that area.

Gameplay

The player must jump on Mechakoopas and try to find the one that swallowed the Key. However, the Mechakoopas constantly rotate in a circle and move in and out. Occasionally, their eyes will glow, and they will breathe fire. Touching the flame or a Mechakoopa will stun the player temporarily. If the player successfully finds the correct Mechakoopa within 30 seconds, they avoid Bowser's penalty.

In-game text
