-==Introduction==
+==Overview==
-Musical symbols fall on one of the two xylophones, making musical sound notes after they hit the ground and disappear. The screen fades and then shows the whole playfield that has the players on it, then the minigame begins.
+Musical symbols fall on the keys of a xylophone before the game cuts to the arena in full with the players.
-==Gameplay==
+Two players are placed on the upper portion of the stage between a pair of xylophones, while the other two players are placed on piano keys on the lower portion of the stage; those two players must [[jump]] to access the upper portion.
-Two players are on the top side between one of the two xylophones, while the other two players are on the giant piano keys; those two players have to [[jump]] to get to the top side where the other two players are.
-The players attempt to gather five different musical symbols that come from the sky and fall down onto the ground within the time limit of 30 seconds. Each different musical symbol is required to win the minigame. The shadow of a falling musical symbol hints that there is a symbol that is going to hit the ground. If a musical symbol hits the ground, it disappears and cannot be collected. The players' dialog boxes on the screen indicate which certain musical symbols are collected and which ones are not collected. The players can stun others by simply jumping on them; if a player is stunned, they can barely move or jump for a brief moment. If one of the players successfully collects all five different symbols before the time is up, that player wins. If the time is up and players did not get all the required symbols, the minigame is considered a tie.
+The goal is to collect five different musical symbols that fall from above within the time limit. If a musical symbol hits the ground, it will disappear. The players can jump on each other to briefly inhibit their movement and jump height. The first player to collect all five different symbols wins. If nobody does so within the time limit, the minigame ends in a tie.

+*It is possible for more than one player to win, though the task is difficult since the players need to collect their last notes almost simultaneously. If successfully done, the winning players will stand in front of the losing player(s) (except if all four players win) in the ending.<ref>hahaPhD (September 24, 2021).
