'''Spotlight Swim''' is a 1-vs-3 [[minigame]] found in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''.

==Gameplay==
Three players have to shine their respective red, blue, and green spotlights on the individual player at once. The solo player is capable of submerging in the pool, helping prevent detection. However, the player has to resurface every once in a while to breathe, at which point they cannot move. Additionally, upon the player submerging, bubbles can be seen above the player, indicating for a short time their position. If the solo player manages to avoid the team players' spotlights, the solo player wins. If the team players catch the solo player with all the spotlights together, the team wins.

The computer players all scatter their lights when the individual player dives, no matter their difficulty setting.

In ''Mario Party Superstars'', sirens are heard when a spotlight touches the solo player, and the player team vocalizes. Easy computers never dive.

==Ending==
If the solo player wins, they celebrate before a [[Lakitu]] arrives with a ladder (''in Mario Party 3'') or [[Fishin' Lakitu|fishing rod]] (in ''Mario Party Superstars'') and picks them up, carrying them off, while the team members perform their losing poses. If the team wins, a cage drops on the solo player before the team celebrates.
