Monty's Revenge is a Battle minigame in Mario Party 7 and a Free-for-All minigame in Mario Party: The Top 100 and Mario Party Superstars. The minigame takes place in a star-shaped patch of dirt in a garden.

Overview[edit]

The minigame is a "reverse Whack-a-Mole": the players pop their heads in and out of 11 holes in the star-shaped ground to avoid being whacked by the three hammer-wielding Monty Moles. The objective is to stay above the ground for as long as possible without being hit. If a player gets hit, their timer stops as they are stunned for a few seconds before going back in. After 30 seconds, the player who remained aboveground the longest is declared the winner.

In Mario Party 7 and Superstars, the winner celebrates as the losers are chased off by a Monty Mole. If the minigame ends in a tie in Mario Party 7, all the players are chased away by a Monty Mole, while in Superstars, the players simply do their tie animations.

This is one of the minigames that can appear in Decathlon Castle. Here, the player's objective is to stay out of the holes as long as possible to earn as many points as possible, up to 1,000. It also appears in The Top 100's Decathlon as the seventh minigame.

Naming[edit]

The minigame's name is a portmanteau of "Montezuma's revenge," a common name for cases of travelers' diarrhea contracted by tourists visiting Mexico, and Monty Mole, due to the fact that Monty is now the one trying to whack the characters with the hammer.
