Whomp Stomp

Whomp Stomp is a boss minigame in Mario Party 9.

Introduction
The players land on their platforms, and then turn to face another platform. Whomp drops down onto this platform and startles them.

Gameplay
Each player chooses 0 or 1 turns of the platforms. After the players have made their selection, each player who chose one will step forward and pull a switch, and the platforms will turn counterclockwise that number of turns. Whomp will then fall down onto the player in front of him, and they will lose a point. The other players then jump onto Whomp's back and can ground-pound it, earning 3 points with each ground-pound. When Whomp is down to half of his HP he will get angry and stomp his foot. For the rest of the battle, he will stomp on the counter every round and add either one or two to it before the players have made their selections. When Whomp is defeated, he will explode and release Mini Stars.

The player who lands the final attack will earn an additional three points, and the player with the most points wins the minigame.

Ending
Whomp is shown lying flat on the ground. He gives out one last grunt of defeat and explodes into small pieces, releasing several Mini Stars.
