Look Away

Template:Minigame-infobox Look Away is a 1-vs-3 minigame in Mario Party 2 and Mario Party Superstars.

Gameplay

Each participant is just the head of the player. After a short jingle plays, the single player must look either up, down, left, right, or straight ahead, accomplished by pushing the Control Stick in a given direction or not at all. Using the same controls, the team of three must avoid looking in the same direction as the single player. If one of the team players looks in the same direction as the single player, their head shrinks and an "X" appears above it, eliminating that player. Even if a player is eliminated, they can still move their head. If the solo player looks in the same direction as them again, their head shrinks even further. It is possible for more than one player to lose in a given round. The game ends either when the team of three loses or if one or more members of their team are still in the game after five rounds.

In the Mini-Game Coaster, the lone human player always plays against the team of three. To win, the human player has to eliminate all three opposing players.

The objective of the lone player trying to eliminate the other three while the team players have to survive five rounds would later be used again in the minigame Fight Cards in Mario Party 5, albeit with buttons determining the actions made instead of the Control Stick.

In Mario Party Superstars, unlike in the original version, the characters do not appear as disembodied heads. Instead, they appear in portraits with their faces and shoulders seen.

Ending

If the single player wins, they dance by bopping their head from side to side, and the team frowns below while spinning and shrinking. If the team players win, they dance while the single player's head spins, shrinks, and disappears.
