Template:Minigame-infobox Puddle Paddle is a 2-vs-2 coin-collecting minigame found in Mario Party 3 and Mario Party Superstars.
Gameplay
The game takes place in a crystal cave with a little lake with a tiny island in the center. Teams on rafts attempt to collect coins and Coin Bags from the Hammer Bro on the island in the center. A team must work together to row its raft. If one of the teams gets hit by a hammer, that team is unable to collect coins for a bit. When the timer runs out, the teams get to keep whatever number of coins they got during the game, and the coins will be added to their coin totals.
