Pedal Power

Pedal Power is a 1-Player minigame in Mario Party.

This minigame (as well as Tug o' War, Cast Aways, Paddle Battle, and to some extent Deep Sea Divers) was infamous for causing many hand injuries among players, leading Nintendo to provide gloves in a legal settlement.

Introduction
The camera shows the player in the dark on a pedaling gizmo, while a Boo is far off to the right side of the screen.

Gameplay
The Boo slowly chases the player as the player sits on the bike. The player simply needs to generate power for a light by rotating. The player has about 20 seconds to generate enough power before the Boo catches them. If the player wins, they win ten Coins. If they lose, they lose five Coins.

Ending
If the player wins, they generate enough power to make the Boo disappear, and the player does a winning pose while still pedaling. However, if the player does not generate enough power, they lose and get caught by the Boo as the light goes out.

Controls

 * – Rotate to pedal

In-game text
