Clock Watchers is a 4-Player Mic minigame found in Mario Party 7. Its name is a play on "clock" and both forms of the word "watch" (which is a term for a miniature clock or a verb meaning "to observe").

Introduction

The Goomba-filled audience cheers as the players run onto the stage.

Gameplay

The announcer gives each player a set time to aim for, which is shown on the large clock. The players have to say "Stop" into the Mic after an amount of time as close to said amount as possible has passed. After three seconds, the timer will disappear, forcing players to keep track themselves. If a player does not stop the clock within 20 seconds, they are disqualified. The player(s) who come(s) closest to their target time(s) win(s).

Ending

The crowd cheers as winners do their victory animations and, unless all four players got the same distance from the target time, losers do their losing animations. If all four players are disqualified, the minigame ends in a draw, with the players performing their losing animations.
