Duct & Cover is an 8-Player minigame from Mario Party 7. Its name is a pun on "duck and cover."

Gameplay[edit]

In this minigame, the players must fix six leaks in their teams' ducts. This is done by repeatedly pressing the buttons that appear over the players' heads. The team that fixes its duct first wins. Only the character on the right plays their winning voice clip. If no team fixes its duct within a certain time limit, a tie occurs.

Compared to other 8-Player minigames in Mario Party 7, this one is unique in that all of the controller's buttons are used by either teammate.

Controls[edit]

  • Control Stick / C Stick – Move
  • B Button A Button Y Button X Button L Button R Button – Tap

In-game text[edit]

  • Rules"Watch for the button symbols to appear over the pipe, then tap that button repeatedly to fix the leak."
  • Advice"If you and your partner work on different leaks, the job will go much faster."
