Crazy Cutters is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party (where it is singularized as Crazy Cutter) and Mario Party Superstars and a Battle minigame in Mario Party 2.
Overview[edit]
Players use their jackhammers at a construction site to cut fossilized characters as accurately as possible. The shapes are Goombas, Bob-ombs, and Boos in Mario Party; Chain Chomps, Cheep-cheeps, and Bloopers in Mario Party 2; and Boo, Chain Chomp, and Blooper in Mario Party Superstars. If a player skews away from the shape entirely, they are stopped and cannot perform any further action during the minigame. Any player who gets at least 80 points successfully cuts out the shape and wins the minigame, though in Mario Party 2 and Mario Party Superstars, players who cut the fossils the most accurately win.
When all players are done, the game calculates each one's percentage, then the ground crumbles, and the cut shapes open, releasing the characters. In Mario Party, "MISS!" is displayed in the corner of any player who did not cut the shape perfectly. If none of the players get at least 80 points, no characters release after the ground rumbles. Any player who cut the shape perfectly does their winning pose.
Crazy Cutters can be bought in the Mini-Game House for 150 coins in Mario Party, or from Woody in Mario Party 2 for 700 coins.

Notes[edit]
- There is a rare glitch in the Mario Party 2 version, where if a character moves, the game registers it as a very small circle, causing that player to lose with zero points.
