Water Runners is a House Party mode from Wii Party U about taking water from the Gamepad, displayed as a river, and returning it to the TV.
Setup
Each player must have a Wii Remote. The Gamepad is taken away from the TV and placed on a stable, safe surface without losing connection. To confirm the position, all four players must point their Wii Remote at the Gamepad so that their spoon appears on the screen. After this, players must return to the TV to begin!
Gameplay
Starting at the TV, players must take their Wii Remote (shown in game as a spoon) to the Gamepad and point at it to scoop some water out. After that, players take their water and must return to the TV to pour it into their jar. This is repeated until one player fills their jar up to the line. However, it is not as simple as it seems...
When players are taking water back to the TV, they might spill water if they handle the Wii Remote too roughly. They must keep their Wii Remotes balanced and still on the way back to spill as little water as possible. No, you can't catch any water you spill, because there is no water. IT'S ALL VIRTUAL! This leads to an egg and spoon situation where players must try to get to the end without dropping something on a spoon, except they must complete the course multiple times and you carry liquid that you can drop multiple times and you can't put it back on the spoon.
The first player to fill the jar up to the line is the winner! they can then choose to play again and optionally change the course.
Controls
Take the Wii Remote to the Gamepad to scoop some water, then bring it back to the TV while trying not to spill it by keeping it balanced. Once you get back to the TV, tilt the Wii Remote to pour the water into the jar from the spoon.
Tips
- Make the path from the Gamepad to the TV an obstacle course so they have to navigate around chairs or even step over banana peels or footballs as they carefully take water back!
- If player's spill a single drop, then make it so that they have to refill again before getting back to the TV! But only if you are cruel...
- Maybe place the Gamepad on a tall object so it is close to the ceiling, or maybe put it under a table so players have to bend down to get to it...
