Tox Box Shocks is a mini game that appears in Mario Party: Island Tour. It is the only time Tox Boxes appear in the game. Its music theme is the panicky Danger Closing In, which also plays in other panicky games such as Mind Over Mattermouth. In the mini game's intro, two Mushroom Retainers are playing the game. One gets smashed as the Tox Boxes begin their assault, while the other retreats.
Gameplay[]
To win, the player must avoid the Tox Boxes's assault for as long as possible. The Tox Boxes do not follow a predetermined route unlike in their incarnations in the platformer games. Players earn a point every second they survive. If they get smashed, they stop earning points. The maximum score is 60 points, and if a player survives long enough for that score, the game ends and the remaining players share the victory. After 30 seconds, another Tox Box shows up and the Tox Boxes's speed increases. The rules read, "Try to last as long as possible without being crushed by the Tox Boxes."
