Think Tank is a 1-vs.-3 minigame that is found in Mario Party 7.
Overview[edit]
In the introduction, the characters in their tanks are shown ascending from the ground via their respective elevators.
The solo player controls a large slow tank, while the team players have small faster tanks. The large tank has ten hit points, while the smaller ones have three each. The goal of the three small tanks is to defeat the large tank, while the large one's goal is to destroy the small ones. The solo player wins if they destroy all three small tanks. The team players win if they destroy the big tank. If neither side defeats the other within five minutes, the minigame ends in a tie.
In the ending, all players stand in front of their tanks as their respective winning/losing animations play; any eliminated tank appears wrecked with smoke coming out of it. If the minigame ends in a tie, all players do their losing animations.
Controls[edit]
– Move
– Fire
In-game text[edit]
- Rules – "One player drives a big tank while the other 3 team up in smaller tanks. Last team standing is the winner!"
- Advice – "The players in small tanks must work together, or the big tank will crush them!"
Naming[edit]
