Beam Team
Template:Minigame-infobox Beam Team is a 1-vs-3 minigame from Mario Party 5. Its name is a pun on the term "dream team." The setting of the minigame is based on real-life Stonehenge.
Introduction
The solo player is first seen. The other three players in UFOs appear and try to capture the lone player, while the lone player escapes.
Gameplay
The three players in UFOs must move around and capture the solo player with their tractor beams, while the solo player has to avoid them. The players controlling the UFOs have to avoid knocking into each other, or they will stop moving for a moment. The team players win if they capture the solo player. The solo player wins if they survive until 30 seconds are up.
Ending
If the team wins, the UFO that caught the solo player goes to the center of the trio, who cheers. If the lone player wins, the team players' UFOs collapse while the lone player celebrates.
