Peach's Birthday Cake

“Today there's a party! This is the top of a big birthday cake! It looks delicious, but it just doesn't have enough decorations. Everybody, add more decorations to the cake, and help finish it!”

—Koopa Troopa, Mario Party

Peach's Birthday Cake is Peach's board in Mario Party. It is one of the smallest boards in the series. Players need to collect stars to complete the cake. Its main feature is the Flower Lottery, where a player plants a Red, Blue, Yellow, or Green Seed (at the cost of ten coins) and grows a flower. Three flowers have a Toad face, while one flower has a Bowser face on it. After all four seeds are planted, four new ones can be chosen. This is run by a Goomba, who says if a player get the Bowser face, he will "win" the lottery and go to Bowser, who will sell him the Bowser Cake, one of Bowser's Bogus Items, for 20 coins. If one gets a Toad face, one will "lose" the lottery and go in the direction of the Star. If a player lands on a Happening space, they have the opportunity to plant a "Strawberry Seed" at the cost of 30 coins, which grows into a Piranha Plant. Once planted, if another player with stars lands on the Happening Space with the Piranha Plant there, it steals a star from that player, and gives it to the player that planted it. Neither the player who planted a Piranha Plant nor a player without any Stars will be attacked by it when they land on that space.

At the end of the game, the winner's stars form into a large star that flashes and the board turns into a beautiful birthday cake. The winner, along with the players in second and third place, Toad, Koopa, Boo, Goomba, a pair of Piranha Plants, and the Star accompanying them celebrates the victory, while the player in fourth place gets bitten by another Piranha Plant.

Part of the music for this board is a remix of part of the Super Mario Bros. ground theme.

Quotes

"Princess Toadstool made this cake. What do you think? Isn't it cute?"

"It looks like there is going to be some kind of party here. What kind of party? I don't even know that."

"I wonder if there are any more party-like decorations around here somewhere?"

"That'd be great if it's a fun party. Oh! Now..., I'm getting excited!"

"The party will be starting soon. Won't you decorate the cake? It seems like it's missing something..."

"Big, beautiful, shiny decorations..., I think I know what it needs!"

Trivia

• This board is the only one not to have a Boo anywhere.
• When a player gets a Star, Toad sometimes says, "Princess Toadstool made this cake. What do you think? Isn't it cute?". This makes Mario Party the only game in the Mario series besides Super Mario 64 in which the Princess is referred to as both "Toadstool" and "Peach."
