Swinging with Sharks

Swinging with Sharks is an item minigame found in Mario Party 3. Its name is a pun on the phrase "swimming with sharks".

Gameplay
The player on the swing must land on a barrel to get the item they desire, while Baby Bowser rides around on a shark. Timing is important when the player is going to jump onto a barrel; if the player misses, he/she gets nothing. If the player runs out of time, he/she automatically jumps off and into the water.

Controls

 * – Jump

In-game text

 * Game Rules – "Jump from the swing and land on a barrel to get an item. Timing is important."
 * Advice – "If you land in the water, you'll get nothing, so be careful."

Trivia
It is actually possible that when you swing offscreen, you are no longer on the swing when it comes back. When this occurs, the minigames ends.
