Don't Look
Template:Minigame-infobox Don't Look is a Free-for-All minigame found in Mario Party 9. The minigame returns in the minigame compilation game Mario Party: The Top 100. The concept of this minigame is similar to that of Look Away from Mario Party 2; however, players are now trying to look away from an external force instead of another player.
Introduction
The players are seen standing on the floor. They move while three groups of arrows appear.
Gameplay
There are 10 rounds. During each round, blue arrows appear pointing in different directions. The objective is to make the character look in the direction that the arrows are not pointing to at the moment. There is only one arrow in the first two rounds, two arrows in the next four rounds, and three in the last four rounds. With each passing round, there is less and less time for the player to think of where to make the character look. The player who beat the most rounds wins.
