Melee]]''. It is a timed dash to the end of a labyrinthine corridor with many doors along the way. Touching one of these doors will end the game and give you coins based on how far you got into the area. The area is fairly linear, with no hazards until near the end, where there is a three way fork in the corridor with each way presenting a different hazard: the top way having spiked walls, the middle having lava, and the bottom having a bottom [[blast line]] and a sparse amount of platforms to get across. Each leads to a short final stretch with a single floating spiked block floating just before the final door. It can be unlocked as a playable stage in VS. Mode through various cheat devices such as the [[Action Replay]]; only the first player can touch a door, which causes the game to freeze.

Each character is allotted a different amount of time to finish, the faster characters such as Fox having less time, and slower characters like Bowser more time. The "speed" of a character here is based on a combination of [[dash]] speed, [[falling speed]], and [[air speed]].
