Hide and Boo Seek

Hide and Boo Seek (also known as Boo Wipe) is a mini-game in Super Mario 64 DS, where Luigi must use his Flashlight to find the Boos in the mansion. The player must use their Stylus as a flashlight. They would see the Boos, then the lights would turn off and the player had to find the Boo(s) in the dark in three seconds, if the player did find the Boo(s) then the player would move on to the next level where there were more Boo(s). After level fifteen, the amount of time was reduced to two seconds. If the player couldn't find all the Boo(s) then it was a game over. This mini-game also appears in New Super Mario Bros.

The Boo(s) in the game follow basic physics, bouncing off walls and each other at angles relevant to the angle they hit them at. By observing the Boo(s) at the beginning, the player can predict where they will end up.
