A round of Smash Tour in action using the normal map size.

Smash Tour (ワールドスマッシュ, World Smash) is a game mode exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Overview

Smash Tour plays as a board game, in which players use Mii characters to move around the board. There are three different boards, small, normal and big, and every game can be set to last for 15 to 25 turns. The goal is to move around the board collecting powerups and fighters, who will face off in a final battle. If customizations are turned on the characters may possess custom special moves, indicated by the number 1, 2 or 3 on the character's icon.

At the game's start, each player is given two random characters. At the beginning of each turn but the first each player receives a random item, and may then choose to use any item they have. Then a spinner starts moving, and after stopping it the player will be able to move by the number of spaces indicated which ranges from 1 to 6 in normal conditions: it is possible to change direction at every crossroad. By moving around the board players can collect collect powerups, which raise their characters' stats, items, which possess various effects, and playable fighters, which will be put into use during battles: the characters are used in the order they were obtained. Each player may hold up to ten characters and four items.

Battles are initiated by landing on the same space as another player or landing on a battle space. At the beginning of a battle, a player may select an item to use, and will then face the others. There are several types of battles: in some of the only specific items may appear, or the player are put in a specific state, or instead of a battle a round of Home-Run Contest or Target Blast might play. The winner will receive a prize shown before the battle, which is always an item plus sometimes a character: in the case of a team battle, the item will be given to all the members of the winning team. If a player gets KOed they will lose their current fighter: the last character KOed will be given to the player who defeated them. After the battle, any player who shares a space with the player who KOed them will be launched away, possibly dropping some of their characters.

During gameplay random events can occur: they range from non-playable characters roaming the board and according bonuses of some kind to players who touch them, to alterations of the map, to boss battles.

When the turn counter runs out, the board phase of the game ends. The players' stats are shown, and some further bonuses may be awarded is some special conditions are met:

• Distance Traveled: each player's Speed attribute increases based on the number of spaces crossed.
• Trophies Used: each player's Arms attribute increases based on the number of trophies used.
• Lucky 7: stats which include a 7 are increased.
• Launched Ace: the player(s) who got launched the most get one more character.
• Launching Ace: the player(s) who launched the most opponents get an increase in their highest stats.
• Booby Prize: the player(s) with the least characters get a bonus character, if they have no characters or every other player has at least two more characters.

The winner is the determined by a special battle. Every fighter that the player has collected counts as one stock: once a fighter is defeated the player's next fighter enters the field until they have no fighters left. The winner is always decided by KO count: in other words, being the last player standing does not necessarily equate to victory. In the case of a tie, the winner is decided by a a Sudden Death finale between the last characters used.

After the game ends several trophies, equipment items, Mii costumes, custom special moves, gold and Crazy Orders passes may be received.

Space types

• Character: a collectible character may appear here.
• Checkpoint: touching it awards the correspondent symbol to the player, as well as a stat boost. Collecting all five symbols gives a player a checkpoint bonus, similar to the Fortune Street series of games.
• Stat-altering: a player's stats may be raised, lowered or swapped with one another. The effects become stronger when approaching the game's end.

Additionally, powerups and items may appear on any empty normal space.
