A '''Chance Cube''' is a item that appears in the [[Wii]] game, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are found in numerous levels and one can be found on the surface of [[Starship Mario]] and near below his right ear. Chance Cubes are depicted as a cube with pictures of a [[1-Up Mushroom]], a [[coin]], a [[Star Bit]], and [[Bowser]]'s face. When stationary, it will just be floating in place. When [[Mario]] hits it, the cube will fly back and land in a similar fashion to a die. Whatever picture is face up is what Mario will earn. As the name implies, the object is entirely based on luck and Mario could skip the object if he wants to. If a 1-Up Mushroom is shown, Mario will earn a 1-Up Mushroom. If a coin is depicted, Mario will win 10 coins. If a Star Bit is depicted, Mario will earn a single Star Bit. However, if Bowser's face shows up, Mario will need to battle an enemy, usually a [[Goomba]]. There is also a [[Luma Shop]] in Starship Mario found in a warp pipe next to the ship's "ear" once certain tasks are complete that allows Mario to feed 30 Star Bits to the Luma to roll a Chance Cube that can give up to five 1-Up Mushrooms at once. Later on there is another one that will allow Mario to roll five for 100 coins for a chance to win up to 25 1-Up Mushrooms. The [[Co-Star Luma]] can also Spin Chance Cubes.

Trivia

  • Rolling into one as Rock Mario, burning it with a fireball as Fire Mario, along with shooting one with a Star Bit, will also activate it.
  • When activating the first one inside Starship Mario, spinning right as it spawns seems to better the chances of getting five 1-Up Mushrooms.
  • When rolled, the player will hear a snare drum roll, ended by a cymbal crash once it has landed on an image.
