Hammer Chime is a boss minigame against Hammer Bro in Mario Party DS .

Overview[edit ]

The minigame's objective is to follow the pattern. The player has five lives, while Hammer Bro has three. Hammer Bro hits four colored drums in a random order with his hammers, then releases a musical note to attack the player. Using the stylus, the player has to play the same drums in order before the musical note hits them. If the player does not hit the same combination in time, they lose a life which will result in Hammer Bro laughing at the player. If the player manages to play the combination in time, a charged musical note is released and sent to Hammer Bro, hurting him and causing him to lose a life. After Hammer Bro loses all three lives, he collapses to the ground in defeat, and the player clears Toadette's Music Room and gains the second Sky Crystal.
