A minigame featured in the game is Mesal Gear Solid: Snake Escape (メサルギアソリッド, Mesaru Gia Soriddo), a spoof of Metal Gear Solid (the name is a pun on "metal" (メタル, metaru) and "monkey" (猿, saru)).

Players are equipped with a Banana Pistol for stunning enemies and Pineapple Grenades for breaking open flimsy walls.
