Shrub Hubbub (Ex-tree-me Gardening in Europe and Australia) is a General minigame found in Mario Party: Island Tour, a game for the Nintendo 3DS. The minigame can be played on the console's bottom screen, using the stylus.
Introduction
A blue Toad brings up a large dishevelled shrub in a red pot, carrying it on what looks like a mobile table. After a short time, an isosceles triangle pattern, represented by dashed lines, appears on the plant's crown. Immediately after, a CPU-controlled cursor spawns on the screen, following the lines and cutting the plant along them. The introduction ends with the Toad moving the chopped plant further, preparing the screen for another plant.
Gameplay
The minigame is a match between four characters, each competing to cut the most shrubs. There are four rounds to be passed, with each featuring distinct patterns to follow on the plant; that is, the first round has the players chop the plant in a triangle form, the second one in a quadrilateral form, the thrird one in a pentagonal form, and finally the fourth one in a hexagonal form. However, the patterns may vary with each of the players' visit in the minigame - for instance, in the second round, the players can be prompted to form either a square, a trapezoid with its shorter base above the longer base, or a trapezoid with the shorter base under the longer one, with all of them having in common that they are quadrilateral polygons. Needless to say, all of the variations are shown below.
In order to perform a cut on the plant's crown, the players have to quickly move their stylus along the desired dashed line, starting and ending which its respective bounds. On the upper side of the Nintendo 3DS is a scoreboard presenting the progress of all the characters that participate in the minigame. At the end of the minigame, the ranking is estabilished in order from the player who passed all the rounds first to the player(s) who cut the least amount of shrubs.
