Granite Getaway is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 6. This minigame is likely based on the iconic Raiders of the Lost Ark scene in which Indiana Jones is chased by a giant boulder.

IntroductionEdit

Everyone is looking around wildly, then a giant boulder drops from the ceiling, and the game starts.

GameplayEdit

The game takes place in a brown cave. The players must run away from the giant rolling boulder behind them. The players have to hold down   the whole time, or they are squished by the boulder. Players have to jump to avoid the many obstacles that appear onscreen. After a while, a spot with a wooden floor is reached and the boulder falls through; players who survive up until this point win. If the boulder squashes everyone, the game will end in a tie.

EndingEdit

Players who get to the end of the cave do their victory animations.

ControlsEdit

  •   – Move
  •   – Jump

In-game textEdit

  • Rules"Run away from the massive rolling boulder! Whoever reaches the goal without getting squished wins!"
  • Advice"Jump over obstacles or you'll trip over them."
