Think Tank
Template:Minigame-infobox Think Tank is a 1-vs.-3 minigame that is found in Mario Party 7. The name is a pun on "think tank," which is an organization that conducts research and advocacy, and a military tank. It takes several elements of its premise from Shell Shocked from Mario Party 2.
Gameplay
The solo player controls a large, slow tank, while the team players have small, faster tanks. The large tank has ten hit points, while the smaller ones have three each. The goal of the three small tanks is to defeat the large tank, while the large one's goal is to destroy the small ones. The solo player wins if they destroy all three small tanks. The team players win if they destroy the big tank.
Ending
All players stand in front of their tanks as their respective winning/losing animations play; any eliminated tank appears wrecked with smoke coming out of it.
