This article is about the minigame from Mario Party 7. For the minigame of the same name from Mario Party 5, see Shock Absorbers (Mario Party 5).

Shock Absorbers is an 8-Player minigame in Mario Party 7. Its name is a pun on electric shocks and "shock absorbers," mechanical devices meant to soften jolts sustained by moving vehicles. This is the first minigame in the Mario Party series to use the same name as an unrelated minigame in a previous game.

Gameplay

In this game, each of the eight players is secluded inside a box with three switches, and the players have to hit the switch that lights up. When all three switches are blinking red, players must duck to avoid the jolt. If the player hits an incorrect switch, is zapped by all three switches, or does not hit a switch in time, they are eliminated after being electrocuted. The last player standing wins for their team, even if that player's teammate was eliminated. If remaining players from different teams get electrocuted at the same time, the minigame ends in a tie.

Controls

  • Control Stick / C Stick (Up, Left, Right) – Punch
  • Control Stick / C Stick (Down) – Crouch
