Emergency Hexit (Chain Challenge in the British English version) is a puzzle minigame in Mario Party: Island Tour.

Overview[edit]

Singleplayer mode of Emergency Hexit
The single-player mode of the minigame

The player has to slide hexagons with characters' emblems on them before a timer runs out. If seven of the same hexagon type are touching, they will be cleared with points rewarded, as well as the remaining time increasing. Additionally, there are hexagons with Green Shells that appear. If the character that the player chose is next to one, they will kick it across the hexagons, knocking them out. There are Poison Mushrooms that make the timer run out faster as well. They can be removed by clearing hexagons next to them or by using a shell. Finally, ? tiles are exclusive to multiplayer mode, and they can send a Poison Mushroom to the opposing player. As a side note, if a player has at least one Poison Mushroom in play, their character's face changes into a frown.

When the game starts, there are only five tiles in play: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, and Boo. As the player levels up, more tiles will be added to the board: Waluigi at level 10 and Wario at level 25.

Controls[edit]

  • Stylus – Slide the panels diagonally or from side to side.
