Bowl Over

Bowl Over is a 1-vs-3 mini-game found in Mario Party and also found in Mario Party 2.

Gameplay
The three players (who are the pins) have to avoid being hit by a Green Shell, while the other player has to bowl and control the shell to knock over as many of the three players as possible. If the single player knocks over a normal pin, they'll get a coin. If the player's shell touches the sides or reaches the end of the lane, the game ends. If a player pin gets hit by the shell, the bowler will take three coins from the player.

In Mario Party 2, there are some changes to the mini-game; this time the player has to knock all of the other players to win, and the player has a chance to throw a second shell. Also, this variation has no side barriers.

In both versions, there are several variations on the bowling 'lane' path, to increase playability.
