There is a slide with 12 objects on it.

The user has to click on 7 of them. If any one of those are whammies, when
the user is done clicking, they will be taken to the Whammy screen.

I made it work already with 7 clear boxes over each item that disappear
layer by layer as items were clicked, but that took an unappealing amount of
time and required hundreds of custom animations. Is there a simpler way that
I'm missing here?

Thanks for your time.

Wow, that sounds complicated. This seems like the perfect job for VBA.
If you don't know VBA, it might take you many hours to learn what you
need to know, but once you know VBA, this would be fairly easy to do. Of
course, VBA has limitations, like it doesn't run in the Viewer, must
have macros properly enabled, etc.

are the Whammy objects predefined: meaning objects 1, 2, 3, and 4 are
Whammies? If so, couldn't you just set each of those objects with an Action
Setting with a mouse click to hyperlink to a the slide with the Whammy
screen? You could set the remaining objects with a text box to be triggered
so that every item has a "hand" on it and it won't be so obvious which are
the Whammy objects.
