Shell Game (minigame)

Shell Game is a 1-player minigame found in Mario Party. This minigame takes place on top of a castle tower, along with a couple of other 1-player minigames.

Introduction
Four Koopa Troopas open their treasure chests. A pile of coins fly into the chest farthest to the left. The chests close and the Koopas will get into their shells and shuffle around.

Gameplay
The object of this minigame is to watch the Koopa Troopa with the Treasure Chest and pick the same one after the shell have shuffled. There are a total of four Koopa Troopas, each one identical to each other. If the player picks the wrong Koopa Troopa, five coins are lost as a result from losing the minigame. The game rewards the player ten coins if the minigame is won.

Ending
If the player picks the right shell, the coins fly toward them and they do a winning pose. If not, the player slumps in disappointment.

Trivia

 * Strangely, the game has many unneeded controls, because the player only has to approach the shell. The Koopa Troopas are also irregularly large.
