Specter Inspector

Specter Inspector is a Duel minigame featured in Mario Party 8.

Introduction
A piano is playing alone, and the camera zooms into a picture with various enemies. Then, when lightning strikes, the piano stops playing and the game starts.

Gameplay

Then, they need to find three of the eleven enemies: Koopa Troopa, Goomba, Amp, Red Boo, Flutter, Whomp, Thwomp, Piranha Plant, Podoboo and Penguin. These enemies are hidden in objects such as pictures, vases, the piano and the table. The first to find three foes wins.
