When a Whomp is defeated, Mario is rewarded with five [[coin]]s. Before Whomps are defeated, jumping on their backs repeatedly gives him five more coins, for a total of ten. | ||

Whomps made their ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as obstacles filling the gaps of the [[Berlin Wall]] section of [[Tour Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways]] and in {{wp|Plaza Mayor, Madrid|Plaza Mayor}} in [[Madrid Drive|Madrid Drive 3R]]. They fall on the track as racers drive by, flattening any racer caught under them but providing [[Jump Boost]]s to those that drive on top of them as they lie down. When lying down, Whomps are invulnerable; otherwise, they can be taken out for bonus points by hitting them with a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], [[Bowser's Shell]], [[Super Horn]], [[Giga Bob-omb]] or a [[Super Bell]], or by driving into them while under the effects of [[Frenzy]] mode, a [[Super Star]], a [[Mega Mushroom]], or a [[Bullet Bill]]. Notably, this is the first time since ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' in which the redesigned Whomps' expressions become more aggressive-looking before they fall down. | Whomps made their ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as obstacles filling the gaps of the [[Berlin Wall]] section of [[Tour Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways]] and in {{wp|Plaza Mayor, Madrid|Plaza Mayor}} in [[Madrid Drive|Madrid Drive 3R]].
