Hot-Hot Hop is a 4-Player minigame in Super Mario Party Jamboree. The name of this minigame is a pun on the title of the song "Hot Hot Hot"; it also resembles that of the Hot-Hot Rocks introduced in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, though they do not appear in Jamboree. While this minigame acts like a regular 4-Player minigame in most modes, an endless variation of it can be played in the Minigame Bay, where the player's longest period survived is recorded, and can be compared with other players online in the Party Plaza.

Introduction

A Magmaargh emerges from a pool of lava and sets its sights on a platform holding the players.

Gameplay

The players are placed on a metallic platform suspended over lava, with a Fire Bar in the center. During the game, the Fire Bar rotates clockwise while Magmaarghs emerge from the lava, progress towards the platform while slightly moving towards a player, and eventually submerge again. Over time, the speed of the Fire Bar's rotation increases and more Magmaarghs appear. Players can jump on opponents to slow them down or over the Fire Bar to avoid it. In regular play, the minigame ends after 45 seconds or when one player is left standing; surviving players are victorious. In the minigame's endless variation, the minigame continues indefinitely until the final player is eliminated, with a maximum recorded time of 9:59:99. Surviving in the minigame's endless variation for 30 or more seconds is required to unlock the "Survival Expert" achievement.

In the Minigame Bay, Hot-Hot Hop appears as the second minigame of the "Bowser's Crew" Daily Challenge set and as the third minigame of the "Volcanic Panic" set.

Ending

Winning players perform their victory animations in the center of the platform as the losing player(s) look(s) on.
