Cube Crushers is a 2-vs-2 minigame in Mario Party DS.
Gameplay
The minigame consists of three levels. Both teams are in an ice maze, in which they must reach the red buttons at the end and press them. However, to reach the buttons, the players need to push 
to punch ice blocks. White ice blocks cannot be destroyed, requiring teammates to get an Invincibility Star so they can punch the ice blocks twice to go through them. To get a Star, the players can punch open a ? Block; doing so requires only one punch. If the block contains a spiky ball, the player gets frozen solid. If that happens, either the partner can punch the frozen player free with one punch, or the frozen player can tap repeatedly to free themself. When teammates reach the red buttons, they must punch the buttons at the same time to open the door. The first team to complete all three levels wins.
This minigame does not appear in Simple Set.
