Flower Shower (minigame)

Template:Articleabout Template:Minigame-infobox Flower Shower is a 4-player minigame found in Mario Party 5. Its name is a pun on both "Flower Power", a hippie slogan, and "power shower", a type of bathroom shower.

Introduction

Two Koopas, a green-shelled male and a red-shelled female, each walk out of the church in the background, with the female holding a bouquet. She then tosses her bouquet into the air, followed by the camera zooming out to show the four players in the area the minigame takes place.

Gameplay

The objective for this minigame is to collect as many flowers as possible before time runs out. Players run around the area collecting flowers, which fall from the sky and land on the ground, disappearing after a few instants. A pink flower rewards the player with a single point, while a golden flower is worth three points. Additionally, other than simple grass patches or ground, there are sections of water which make the player considerably slower when moving through it. The players can jump on each other to temporarily make the opponents slower and unable to jump.

Ending

The four players are lined up on the bridge from the minigame. The church bell then starts ringing as the winner catches the bouquet from the introductions, followed by striking a victory pose which the losers perform their losing animations, with the two Koopas cheering in the background.
