'''Manta Rings''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''.
'''Manta Rings''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. This is the only minigame in which the song "Swaying Gently" plays.


==Overview==
==Introduction==
The scene opens with a perspective of players jumping off of the boat into the water.
From underwater, the four players are seen on a dock above. They jump in the water and turn around, ready to [[swim]]. Realistic crabs are seen holding flags at the starting point.


Players try to swim through the most [[Bubble ring|ring]]s, each worth a [[point]], that show up as players [[swim]] along the route. Two or three gold rings, each worth three points, are sometimes produced by a [[Manta]] that swims by. Hitting a [[Blooper]], a [[Sushi]], or an orange eel takes away one, two, or three points, respectively. Players who end with the most points win, but if every player ends with the same score, it is a draw.
==Gameplay==
The object of the minigame is to swim through as many [[Bubble ring|ring]]s as possible. The minigame is seen from a rearview perspective. The rings appear as the four players swim through the course. Each ring is worth one [[point]]. Sometimes, a [[Manta]] swims by and drops two or three gold rings worth three points each. Hitting a [[Blooper]] deducts one point, hitting [[Sushi]] deducts two points, and hitting the orange eel at the end deducts three points. Any player with the most points wins. However, if all players have the same number of points, the minigame ends in a draw.


The ending shows the players swimming through a goal at the end, with the winner jumping onto [[Toad]]'s boat to do their victory pose. The losers' voice clips are still intact, even from being underwater. If there is more than one winner, they wave in the water. If a draw occurs, the boat leaves, and the players are left in the water.
==Ending==

The players swim through a goal at the end, and the scene changes to show them above the water. The losers stay in the water while the winner jumps onto [[Toad]]'s boat and does a winning pose. If more than one player wins, they will stay in the water and wave. If a draw occurs, Toad will instead drive away, leaving all four players stranded in the water.
