Gameplay
There will be three mountains similar to the ones in the Mount Duel mode in Mario Party 6. On each one are two characters. The two characters on the little mountain will start fighting until one of the characters falls off. The character that won will jump to the last mountain. Meanwhile the player's partner will be doing the same thing-fighting. If the player's partner wins he or she will advance to the last mountain and the player will win. However if the player's partner loses, the player will have to fight another character. If the other character loses, the player wins.However if both players fall of the final mountain a fly guy will decide who wins by carriing 1 player and dropping him on the mountain

Ending
Both winners (or the remaining winner) will stand on the third mountain and do their winning poses. On the background of the stage a pair of Fly Guys' silhouettes carrying the two losers can be seen.

Trivia
The mini-game name is a pun off a real game and FOX TV show named "King of the Hill".
