Track Star (minigame)

Track Star is a 1-vs.-3 mini-game in Mario Party DS. One player chases the other three on a Toy Steamer, on a track with three forks. The three runners each choose one way, as well as the player on the Toy Steamer. If the Toy Steamer does not choose the same path as any of the runners, they will lose a chance to ram them. If it does have at least one player to ram, they can speed up to knock the player(s) away. The steamer has 5 seconds to try to ram players. The three players that are running must tap 2 buttons repeatedly and simultaneously if they are caught to avoid get knocked away.
