The two people playing this game will need to alternate pressing the A button, and once the rice has been pounded enough, it becomes mochi and the next round begins, where the rice needs a bigger and faster pounding. Each round counts down from 15, however (they're slower than normal seconds), so the two of you (or just you holding two Wii Remotes) need to pick up the pace for each round. If either player presses A before the other one does, the usu will break, and the round will start over. The game ends once the mortar breaks three times in the same round. The player colors are indicated by their pants--their headbands have the other player's color.
