Mansion Patrol is a minigame from the Flipside Arcade in Super Paper Mario.

GameplayEdit

The object of Mansion Patrol is to blast the Boos before to score points. It takes place in what appears to be the Foyer from Luigi's Mansion. If the player blasts a lot of Boos in a row without missing, then they score more points. Sometimes a Boo will fly across the screen, holding Toad. If the Boo is shot, Toad is saved and the player will be rewarded an item, but if the player shoots Toad, they are docked points. The items include a Mushroom, which gives one life; a Flower, which gives ten seconds of Autofire, and a Star, which stuns every Boo temporarily. If a Boo gets too close, it will attack, costing the player a life. If the player loses all their lives, the game is over. Ten rounds are required to complete this minigame.

The scoring is as follows:

  • Boo or Dark Boo - 400 points
    • Nice - 480
    • Good - 560
    • Great - 640
    • Wonderful - 720
    • Excellent - 800


  • Big Boo - 5000
    • Nice - 6000
    • Good - 7000
