In the multiplayer version of this minigame, both players have a five-second time limit. The timer does not start counting down until the stack gets too high; the players must keep the stack below the lowest bar of the gate to keep the timer from counting down. The player who still has time left is the winner. There are blocks with up- and down-facing arrows. Matching blocks with up-facing arrows causes a row of [[Brick Block]]s to appear at the bottom of the opponent's stack, while matching blocks with down-facing arrows causes three Brick Blocks to appear on top of the opponent's stack. In ''The Top 100'' and ''Superstars'', the effects are reversed, and only one Brick Block appears on the top if an up-facing arrow block is matched. Brick Blocks can be cleared by making a match adjacent to them or by touching them. In both modes, the music speeds up if a player's stack is too high.
