==Gameplay== | |||
The minigame takes place on a 5×4 grid, where Monty Moles and [[Luigi]]s come out of holes and quickly hide back in them. Each Monty Mole is worth one [[point]] if hit. However, the player should be careful that Luigis sometimes pop out. If Luigi is hit, the player loses three points. The player must rack up as many points as possible within the 30-second time limit. | |||
In the multiplayer version, up to four players can compete, and whoever has the most points wins. Unlike in single-player mode, the points can go below zero. Multiplayer mode also has adjustable difficulty. The Easy difficulty has no Luigis, the Normal difficulty has some slowly moving Luigis, and the Hard difficulty has many quickly moving Luigis. | |||
