Cursed Mushroom

A Cursed Mushroom is a purple mushroom found throughout the Mario Party series. The first occurrence of a Cursed Mushroom was in Mario Party where if a player landed on a Mushroom Space, he or she could obtain a Mushroom or a Cursed Mushroom. If the player was unfortunate enough to get a Cursed Mushroom, the player would have to skip his or her next turn (not including mini-games). Later in the series, the Poison Mushroom became a usable item which could be used on any character the player desired. The Cursed Mushrooms reduced the Dice Block's roll from 1-10 to 1-5. In Mario Party 4 the Cursed Mushrooms were not used, however there were similar Mushrooms called Mini Mushrooms and Super Mini Mushrooms. The space limitation per roll was the same for these Mushroom with two differences – they could only be used on the player who has them and it can pass through small, unaccessible parts of the board. The last occurrence of a Cursed Mushroom was in Mario Party 5 ' s Card Party where they could be found under Mushroom inscribed cards. After obtaining one, the player could use it at the beginning of his or her turn. When used, the player can stop a roulette to land on another player. This temporarily removes one die from that player's dice roll, meaning that the roll will be reduced from 1-6 to 1-3.Cursed Mushrooms appeared again in Mario Party 7, as one of Koopa Kid's"punishments".This would cut your roll in half. In this game they like exactly like Poison Mushrooms.

Cursed Mushrooms bear a similar resemblance to the Poison Mushrooms from Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels.
