Raft Riot

Raft Riot is a 4-player and duel minigame included in Mario Party DS. It is a watercraft racing game where players ride on rubber rafts across a track course on the ocean near the coast that can be seen in the background.

The minigame also features in the Score Shuffle mode, as the last minigame to conclude the event; in this case, players earn points even when finishing below first place.

Gameplay
The aim of the game is to navigate your way through the race track and reach the finishing line in first place. Simply hold the A button to get the raft moving, and use the control pad to steer around obstacles left and right, and the B button to brake.

Throughout the course are orange beach balls scattered around, which will slow the player if collided onto. There are also speed ramps featured which of course, give the player a momentary burst of speed.
