'''Oil Crisis''' is a 4-Player Mic [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. The term "oil crisis" references the {{wp|1973 oil crisis}}, which occurred  when the price of oil skyrocketed due to an embargo on the part of {{wp|Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries|OAPEC}}.
'''Oil Crisis''' is a 4-Player Mic [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. The term "oil crisis" was originally used for a period of time when oil was in short supply.

The players must navigate their cars around the oil spills (which slow them down) and collect pink fuel cans to get to the finish line. Players must command their cars to move left or right. During each player's turn, they also have the opportunity to use their [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] and receive a speed boost (like in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series) by shouting "Mushroom" into the [[Nintendo GameCube#Nintendo GameCube Microphone|Mic]]; however, this can be done only once. If there is no Mic, the commands are selected from a blue box. The finish line is 200 yards/metres away from the starting point. If the player runs out of fuel, they stop and their distance is measured from where they are to the starting point. The player who gets the farthest is the winner. If more than one player crosses the finish line, then those players win. There are no ties.
