Lab Brats

Lab Brats is a rare minigame found in Mario Party 6. Its name is a pun on the term "Lab Rats".

Introduction
In the minigame's introduction, Professor Elvin Gadd states that he invented a maze-making machine, called the Maze Manufactory. He taunts the player, saying that they can't solve the mazes before time is up, then he wishes the player good luck in solving them.

Gameplay
The aim of the game is to reach the end of five mazes in five minutes. It is one of the only three 1-player minigames available in Mario Party 6. On every level, the player receives a helpful partner that cannot go to the next level; these partners include Tuxie, Ukikis, Koopas, Goombas and Shy Guys. A trampoline propels the player to the next maze. At the end, E. Gadd gives the player a rank, as high as 16.
