Triangle Twisters

Triangle Twisters is a puzzle mini-game that can be unlocked in Mario Party DS. Players can unlock this mini-game by completing the Story Mode. This mini-game has two modes: Focus Mode and Frenzy Mode. In Focus Mode, the player will have to create arrangements of triangles within a certain amount of time. In Frenzy Mode, the player will have to get rid of as many triangles as possible within a time limit to get to the next level.

Rules
Twist triangle clusters with your stylus to connect four or more triangles of the same color, which will clear them from the field.
