Camera Shy as to four players.

Camera Shy is a 4-player and a duel mini-game that appeared during the events of the game Mario Party DS.

Introduction

In the scene, the mini-game sets in a field, most likely the crops of corn like in the farmlands. The players are in their corners in the playfield, where there are many paths to go in and out and for players to hide. The players' cameras flash as the camera shows the character the player is controling, and goes into first-person. Shortly after that, the mini-game starts.

Gameplay

Players play in a field, holding cameras, in order to take a shot of the other opponents. When the player completes the objective for taking shots of every opponent, the player will win the mini-game.

The field is a large maze that appears to be made out of corn. Finding opponents is quite difficult due to the style of the field.

When a player takes a picture, it takes quite a while for the camera to prepare for the next shot. The lens on the touch screens turn green when an opponent is in the perfect spot for a picture. If a player captures their opponent in a perfect shot, the opponent will jump with their camera in the air.

The player can view the winners’ pictures at the end.

In-Game Instructions

Take a photo of everyone else in the maze. Your target must be in focus, so take the photo only when the frame turns green.

Tips
Your flashbulb needs time to recharge after every use, so make sure you have a shot in focus before you shoot.

Controls

• D-pad – Move
• A Button – Snap photo

Trivia

• Camera Shy does not appear to have a time limit, but it actually does. If no one has won in 3 and a half minutes, a 30-second timer appears. The game is called a Draw if no one has won by the time the 30-second timer hits zero.
