Triangle Twisters is a puzzle minigame in Mario Party DS. The minigame is unlocked by clearing the Story Mode.
Gameplay
Triangle Twisters features two modes: Frenzy Mode and Focus Mode.
Frenzy Mode
In Frenzy Mode, the entire field is covered with triangles, and the player has sixty seconds to clear as many triangles they can by connecting four or more. They start on level one, and by clearing thirty triangles they progress to the next level. The player earns ten points for every individual triangle they clear, and by clearing a level, the player earns one hundred points for every second remaining, and the time limit increases up to thirty seconds. The game is over when the player runs out of time. Additionally, clearing triangles in the pattern of a bigger triangle or a hexagon results in 200 and 500 bonus points, respectively.
Focus Mode
In Focus Mode, the player must position the triangles in the pattern shown on the top screen in order to clear them. In total, there are fifty puzzles to clear. The player can also press 
or tap the "Reset" button on the touch screen at any time in order to restart a puzzle. Clearing four triangles but not in the pattern shown causes the player to lose ten seconds. By clearing a level, the player earns the same bonus as in Frenzy Mode, for a maximum possible score of 450000.
In-game text
Frenzy Mode
- Rules – "Twist triangle clusters with your stylus to connect four or more triangles of the same color, which will clear them from the field."
- Tips – "You can make not only chains but also triangles and hexagons, so watch for every opportunity to connect tiny triangles of the same color."
Focus Mode
- Rules – "Twist triangle clusters to create the patterns that are shown on the top screen as you play."
- Tips – "You can press to restart a problem. Take your time, because if you connect four or more triangles incorrectly, you'll lose time and have to start over!"
