Herbicidal Maniac

Herbicidal Maniac is a 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 7.
==Opening==
Piranha Plants and bombs emerge from all the pipes and before returning inside as the characters' pipe platforms move up.
==Gameplay==
On each team, the two characters have to cooperatively shoot every Piranha Plant as they pop out of the pipes. If a bomb is hit, several more Piranha Plants appear, making it increasingly harder for the team to win. The first and second characters of a team use a round target cursor and square target cursor respectively. If the two teammates try to shoot the same target simultaneously, their projectiles will hit each other and be destroyed upon contact. When a team shoots every Piranha Plant on its side, they earns a point. The first team to earn three points wins.
==Ending==
The two characters of the winning team perform their respective victory animation, while the two on the losing team perform their respective losing animation as their platforms are lowered. If the minigame ends in a tie, everyone does their respective losing animation while their platforms are lowered.
==Controls==
* : Move cursor

==Flavor text==
* Rules: Fire at the Piranha Plants when they emerge from the pipe. The first team to 3 points is the winner.
* Advice: Whatever you do, don't hit the bombs! The resulting explosion will cause a Piranha Plant infestation!
==Trivia==
*The minigame's name is a portmanteau of "homicidal maniac," a phrase referring to a person with an insane desire to kill other people, and "herbicide," a chemical used to kill plants.
