Defuse or Lose

Defuse or Lose is a 2 vs. 2 mini-game in Mario Party 5.

The object of the game is simple enough: to not let the fuse reach King Bob-omb. To do this, the player and his or her teammate must Ground Pound the three fuses, which follow a set trail. The fuses will rekindle not too long after they are extinguished, so the players must continually put them back out. If the fire or spark reaches King Bob-omb, that team loses. The key to winning this game is to ground pound as fast as possible, and to have a good aim.

The mini-game features the only appearance of King Bob-omb in Mario Party 5. In the background are some big Bob-omb shaped sculptures. Also, surrounding the player are a big group of Bob-ombs. If the player loses, King Bob-omb explodes, making the player's character, his or her teammate and the Bob-ombs all fly away.
