Abandon Ship (minigame)

Abandon Ship is a 4-player minigame in Mario Party 2.

In this minigame, the four characters are on a large ship that crashes into a boulder, causing it to start sinking. Quickly, the players must climb the masts to get to the top of the ship. Players can quickly climb up by repeatedly tapping the A button. Sometimes, Cheep-Cheeps jump out of the water and hit the player, which stuns and pushes them down the pole. At that same time, the water level rises. Players can fall in the water and be taken by Bloopers if they aren't climbing fast enough. Also, the players have to move left and right to avoid wooden bars. Coins can be collected this way, too. The first player to reach the top first wins the minigame.

This minigame was once shown in a commercial for Fruit by the Foot.
