==Gameplay==
Players attempt to toss bones to make the Chain Chomps they ride upon move forward, toward the goal. A purple arrow moving left and right appears in front of the player before they toss a bone. Pressing {{button|gcn|A}} stops the arrow. They then toss a bone in that direction, which the Chain Chomp chases the bone. If the Chain Chomp bumps into a column, the Chain Chomp and player are temporarily stunned. The first one to cross the finish line wins.
