History

Mario Party 10

 

Mega Monty Mole first appears in Mario Party 10 as the mid-boss of Airship Central in the minigame, Mega Monty Mole's Maze Mischief. During the minigame, Mega Monty Mole arrives in a flower pot being carried by a Monty Mole themed Hot-Air Balloon and the players on their Airship emerge for battle. Players need to make it through a maze on the Airship in order to reach the cannons to fire at Mega Monty Mole, whoever reaches the cannons first gets the better cannon which deals more damage to Mega Monty Mole for more points. After each attack, Mega Monty Mole will pull out a Bomb rearranging the maze giving players a different maze to work with. When Mega Monty Mole is depleted to half his health, every time he rearranges the maze, bombs are also added in certain ends forcing players to avoid them. If a bomb explodes on a player, they lose a point. After his defeat, Mega Monty Mole collapses and then proceeds to explode, which releases several Mini Stars.

Mario Party: Star Rush

 

Mega Monty Mole later reappears as a boss in Mario Party: Star Rush. In this game, he is fought in the boss minigame Mega Monty Mole's in the Hole and is fought similarly to Lemmy and Wendy in Super Mario World utilizing explosive duplicates to fake out players, with the fight taking more of a Whack-A-Mole approach. During the minigame, Mega Monty Mole pokes out of the various holes in the ground alongside his various explosive duplicates and players (armed with their hammers) have to score hits on Mega Monty Mole to earn points whilst avoiding the explosive fakes (which cause players to lose points). Players must keep an eye on Mega Monty Mole and his fakes in order to succeed, it's generally easy to tell the explosive duplicates apart from the real Mega Monty Mole as the fakes don't move and have fuses. When Mega Monty Mole is enraged, more fakes will show up leaving more room for error and making it slightly harder. After Mega Monty Mole's defeat, he explodes once again and whoever has the most points is the winner. Mega Monty Mole can also sometimes appear in Toad Scramble as well. If players reach Mega Monty Mole first, they get to start his boss minigame much earlier and be able to get extra points before the other players get to Mega Monty Mole.
