Shy Guy Wells are characters in Mario Party 4. They are animate statues of Shy Guys that appear on the board Shy Guy's Jungle Jam. When a player character lands on a Happening Space near a Shy Guy Well, a Shy Guy asks, "What kind of wish do you have?" The player can answer with "a fun wish" or "a sad wish." Either answer may please or anger the Shy Guy Well at random. If the Shy Guy Well is pleased, the game continues as normal. If angered, the Shy Guy Well causes the large Shy Guy statue at the back of the board to begin "crying," preventing access to the opposite side of the board via bridge or raft for one to three turns due to the rising tides it creates.
