Race to the Finish! (minigame)
Race to the Finish! (Boss no Tokoro ni Todoritsuke!, "Arrive at the Boss' Place" in Japan) is a 1-player challenge in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee. It appears as the 12th stage in the 1-player mode in Super Smash Bros. and as the 9th stage in the Classic Mode in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Both times it is the third bonus stage of the mode.
Super Smash Bros.
In Super Smash Bros, the player must dodge various obstacles and Polygons to get to the finish. The room is several stories tall and resembles the first level in Donkey Kong in shape. On a side note, even though the title of the level reads "Arrive at the Boss' Place" in the Japanese version, the narrator says "Hurry to the Battlefield!" instead.
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Template:POV
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the layout is different,the room has a lot of doors unlike Super Smash Bros.'s Race to the finish (which only has one).To finish, the player has to enter one of many doors. It is timed different for each character. At the end of the level, the player will receive bonus points depending which door the player entered, the further the player gets, the more coins they receive.
The main hallway splits into three sections, one of which the player can choose depending on the character they're using. The top tangent is a linear maze with spikes along the walls. The middle hallway contains lava, while that and the spikes are dangerous, none are lethal. The lower area is the only real threat as it's a huge pit with a few small platforms spaced apart. They join together in a final stretch to the last door, which rewards the player with five complete coins.
