Hammer Drop is a 4-Player coin-collecting minigame in Mario Party and Mario Party Superstars.

Overview

Players run atop a stone column as a Hammer Bro throws coins, coin bags (worth five coins), and hammers at them while riding a cloud.[1][2] Players try to collect as many coins before time runs out. If a player falls off of the tower, they are eliminated but still keep the coins their coins, though this is not the case for Mario Party Superstars.

Being a coin minigame, players do not perform their losing animation at the end unless they have not obtained any coins. The minigame ends with a "Miss!" only if every player falls off the tower.

Hammer Drop can be bought from the Mini-Game House for 450 coins in Mario Party when it becomes available.
