Zoom Room

Template:Minigame-infobox Zoom Room is a Bowser Jr. minigame in Mario Party 9. The gameplay of this minigame is pretty similar to Flash and Dash, from Mario Party DS.

Introduction

There is an aerial shot of the maze. The camera zooms in on Bowser Jr, who does a taunting dance and laughs. The camera then shifts back to the players.

Gameplay

The pair must try to catch Bowser Jr. before time runs out. Players run around the maze, chasing Bowser Jr., who sweats when a player gets close to him. Bowser Jr. always runs faster than the players, so it is not possible for a solo player to catch him alone. Because of this, the two players must cooperate together in order to corner him.

Players can use the mini-map in the center of the screen to help them, though it only shows characters, not walls. The best chance of catching Bowser Jr. is if the players run at him from opposite sides when he's in a corner.

If the players fail to catch Bowser Jr. within 30 seconds, Bowser Jr. is victorious.

Ending

If the players catch Bowser Jr., they'll kick him, and he will fall down with stars going around his head. The players then strike victory poses.
