Target Smash!

File:Target.jpg

Target Smash! (Break the Targets! in Super Smash Bros. and Target Test in Super Smash Bros. Melee) is a mini-game appearing in all three installments of the Super Smash Bros. series. The goal of the game is to break 10 targets as quickly as possible. In the first two games, each character had a unique stage. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there are instead five stages common to all characters.

The game records the lowest time taken to break all ten targets. If a character has never broken all the targets, the game will also record how many targets were broken in that time. There is also a total time that is kept that includes the cumulative time taken to clear every character's stage. The total time only appears after all characters have cleared their stage.

In Brawl, one can also save replays of their attempts. Additionally, items have now been incorporated into the mini-game. Co-op mode is also available.

Riddles

"Riddle" is an unofficial term that means to break as many targets as possible without touching the ground.

The rules for "riddling" vary, but the most commonly accepted rules are:

• The player may start from any point on the target test, but the first target must be broken in mid-air, and once the first target has been broken, the player may not touch the ground.
• The player may not set up a projectile to break a target and then jump.
• Wall jumps, wall clings, tether recoveries, wall-grapples, hanging from the ledge, and ledge-jumping are all permitted.

Trivia

• Despite Jigglypuff's Sing doing no damage in matches, the attack can still break the targets in Target Smash.
• Captain Falcon's Falcon Dive can break the Targets in Target Smash but cannot break a Smash Ball.
