Bob-omb Blasting

Bob-omb Blasting is one of the four mini-games in Super Mario Galaxy along with Rolling Ball, Bubble Blowing, and Ray Surfing. It appears in the Battlerock Galaxy and the Dreadnought Galaxy. When Mario or Luigi arrives on the small platform the mini-game takes place on, he is told by a furious Gearmo that people have been dumping garbage in the ammo depot, which is supposed to clean. Mario or Luigi has to use Bob-ombs to blow up all of the trash in under thirty seconds. The Bob-ombs take ten seconds to explode, and the yellow circles mark a good place to throw them. However, the circles only appear in the Battlerock Galaxy version of the mini-game. When Mario or Luigi is done, the Gearmo rewards him with a Power Star.

Unlike most mini-games, failing Bob-omb Blasting does not result in the loss of a life.
