Fowl Play is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 3.

Overview[edit]

Both players try to catch a chicken first before time runs out. If a player gets too close, the chicken runs off. Whoever fulfills the objective first wins, but if neither player does before time runs out, it is a draw.

The minigame title is a play on "foul play," but with "fowl" substituting the first word to refer to chickens.

In-game text[edit]

  • Game Rules
    • Tumble: "Try to chase down and catch the runaway chicken. Get ahead of your rival by jumping the fence."
    • Goomba: "Chase down and catch the runaway chicken! You can jump over the fence, too!"
  • Advice
    • Tumble: "It's easy to lose the chicken because it's so nimble and quick. If you can't find it, follow the footprints."
    • Goomba: "The chicken is quick, so it's easy to lose sight of it! You may be able to find it by following the footprints!"
