Unhappy Trails

Unhappy Trails is a basic, 8-player minigame in Mario Party 7. Its name is a pun on the phrase "happy trails". The gameplay of this minigame is similar to Frigid Bridges from Mario Party 3.

Gameplay
The object of this minigame is to get a treasure at the end of the course. One player brings a key to their partner, who will then run to the treasure and unlock it to get a jewel. The player who opens the chest must bring the jewel to their teammate, who will then bring it back to the beginning of the path. The team that accomplishes this first wins.
