Bowser's Block Battle

Bowser's Block Battle is a boss minigame featured in Mario Party 9.

Introduction
The view will be on the players on a platform in space. The view will then change to be in front of the platform, and Bowser will appear, roar menacingly, and pull some dice out.

Gameplay
Players must attack Bowser by rolling the dice so that his or her face will be showing on top of the dice. If the player rolls his or her character's face, then Bowser will be damaged and the player will earn one point times the number of their faces he or she rolled. However, once Bowser is damaged, he will attack by spitting a trio of fireballs times the number of Bowser faces that are showing on the dice; anybody hit by a fireball will lose one point. The process will then repeat.

When Bowser is damaged halfway, he will increase in size. His fireball attack will become more powerful, and he will also occasionally tilt the stage. He will also sometimes pull out a different dice block with the faces of six previous bosses on it; this dice block will summon the boss that it lands on. However, sometimes, Bowser will also appear on this block; if it lands on him, he will attack by shooting numerous fireballs.

Ending
Once defeated, Bowser will fly into the black hole behind the battlefield and explode, revealing several Mini Stars.
