'''Star Spaces''' are spaces that appear in the [[Mario Party series|''Mario Party'' series]], where if a [[Characters|character]] passes by one, the host of the Mario Party game will ask the character who passes by the space if the player wants a [[Star]].  
'''Star Spaces''' (known as '''Star Spots''' in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' and referred to generically as '''Stars''' in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'') are special [[Space (Mario Party series)|spaces]] that appear in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series. If a character passes by one, the [[guide]] (or, in some cases, the [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]'s bearer) asks them if they will trade a certain number of [[coin]]s for a certain number of Stars (typically one). How many coins they have to trade depends on the [[board (Mario Party series)|board]]. Traditionally, they have to trade 20 coins for a Star, but on certain boards, the Star may cost as little as five coins or as much as 40.


The character can say "Yes" or "No" and the character will either get a star or not. After the character gets the star, the Star Space will move to a different location in the map. On certain boards, such as [[Faire Square]], the Star Space's location will remain stationary.
After the character gets the Star, the Star Space moves to a different location on the map. On certain boards, such as [[Faire Square]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and [[DK's Stone Statue]] from ''Mario Party DS'', the Star Space's location remains stationary. When the Star Space moves to a different location, there is a small chance that the new Star Space appears directly where a character is standing. However, this character is unable to buy the Star and must loop around the board in order to do so.


Although it's impossible to actually land on Star Space, there is a small chance that a new Star Space will appear directly where a character is standing. Ironically, this character will be unable to reach the Star Space on their next turn, and will instead have to loop around the board to reach it.

When a character passes a star space, he/she will have to buy it. How much they pay depends on the board. Traditionally, the player will have to pay 20 coins, but on certain boards, the star may cost as little as 5 coins or as much as 40.

Star Spaces (known as Star Spots in Mario Party DS and referred to generically as Stars in Mario Party 10) are special spaces that appear in the Mario Party series. If a character passes by one, the guide (or, in some cases, the Star's bearer) asks them if they will trade a certain number of coins for a certain number of Stars (typically one). How many coins they have to trade depends on the board. Traditionally, they have to trade 20 coins for a Star, but on certain boards, the Star may cost as little as five coins or as much as 40.

After the character gets the Star, the Star Space moves to a different location on the map. On certain boards, such as Faire Square from Mario Party 6 and DK's Stone Statue from Mario Party DS, the Star Space's location remains stationary. When the Star Space moves to a different location, there is a small chance that the new Star Space appears directly where a character is standing. However, this character is unable to buy the Star and must loop around the board in order to do so.
