Boo Tag is a 4-player minigame in Mario Party DS.
Layout
The minigame takes place on a treasure chest filled with coins, gold bars, gems, a sword handle, and some other jewelry items. It takes place during nighttime, and appears to be inside of a castle.
Gameplay
At first, a Boo appears and possesses one of the characters. The possessed character has to try and touch one of the other characters to pass the Boo over to them, and the opponents all have to move around to try and avoid whoever has been possessed by a Boo. The minigame has a time limit of 30 seconds, and once ten seconds have passed, another Boo appears and tags a different character, making it harder for the other two characters to avoid the Boos. The possessed characters are capable of passing through solid objects within the treasure chest.
There is a bar next to each character that shows how many seconds and milliseconds (rounded to the nearest hundredth) they have been possessed by a Boo. Whoever has been possessed the least amount of time is the winner. If two or more characters were possessed for the same amount of time, they also win.
Ending
The characters are standing near the front of the treasure chest, and whoever wins does their victory animation, as usual.
