Catchy Tunes
--Descriptor:
Run around and collect the falling musical symbols. You must
collect one of each kind to win.

Watch the shadows to predict where the symbols will fall. You can
also jump on other players to stun them!
--My Advice:
A) Once you see the green treble clef, dash towards it right away
since it is the hardest one to find, apparently.
B) Try jumping on other players to beat them to a symbol.

get the same symbols over and over again.

--Descriptor:
Punch your rivals to force them out of the floating water bubble.
--Toadsworth’s Advice:
To avoid being forced out, try to stay in the center of the bubble.
--My Advice:
A) Don’t always go for one person. An opponent can easily find
you an open target and they could potentially knock you out.
B) Sometimes, the computers will continuously punch you so you
can’t escape their wrath. Try sneaking in a punch or two when you see
an opening.

middle, or, to one other side.
C) Hitting a shell will result in a loss of time. Jump over them to
avoid them.

Big Dripper

Collect the honey that drips from the ceiling, but watch for swarms of
killer bees!
--Toadsworth’s Advice:

"A" and wait for them to leave!
B) If the Rumble Feature is turned off, you'll see a "!" on the screen
when the bees are coming.

Steer clear of walls and rival buggies. Bumping into either one will

into almost every wall at the start. Try letting the COM's go a head

Say "fire" to blow a dart at the moving targets. You can launch up to
5 darts.
--Toadsworth’s Advice:
Don't spend too much time aiming, or the game will end with darts
unspent!

to hit and it will jsut result in both a loss of time and a wasting
of darts.
