Tap Dash (known as Find It First in the British English version) is a General minigame from Mario Party: Island Tour.

Overview[edit]

A Mario enemy such as a Lava Bubble is seen on the top screen, and players must quickly touch the one panel out of sixteen that matches them. The first player to find it gets nine points, second awards six points, three for third and one point for fourth. If a player touches an incorrect panel or does not touch the panel within the time limit, then no points will be awarded. The player with the most points after three rounds wins.

Controls[edit]
