Mario Party 4 - Archaeologuess (Shy Guy's Mini-Game) Story Minigame #2: Part II (2 / 6)

Archaeologuess is the Story minigame of Shy Guy in Mario Party 4. It can be played and unlocked only when Shy Guy's Jungle Jam is completed. The minigame's name is a pun on the word "archaeologist." It is a game of odd-one-out that takes place in an ancient chamber.

In the minigame, the player must determine which shape out of five has one difference from the other four. If a player guesses incorrectly, the shape will fall down and flatten their character. A correct guess sends the shape flying towards the Shy Guy picture in the back of the room. The player wins by getting three correct guesses before their opponent.

SHY GUY SAYS:

▪ "So, um...here's the present I promised!"
▪ "But the rules say..."
▪ "You have to beat me at a Mini-Game."

Shy Guy – "One of the five spinning blocks will have a unique shape. Use ⚪️ to move under the one block that doesn't match, and then press 🟢 to hit the switch. Pressing the switch lets you choose that block. You get a point if you're right, but you get crushed if you're wrong. If you can get three points before I do, then you win!"
