The player can control the Star Ball by first [[jump]]ing on top of it, pointing {{button|Wii|Wiimote}} straight up, and then tilting it in a direction while trying to move at a steady pace. Once [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) is on the Star Ball, it is impossible for him to dismount it. Mario's objective is to ride the Star Ball into a hole marked by a yellow flag, which is similar to a golf hole. To get to the flag, Mario must bypass numerous obstacles, including narrow ledges and moving [[platform]]s. Any enemies in the path of the Star Ball will be crushed. Additionally, the speed at which Mario rolls affects the speed and the pitch of the background music being played. | The player can control the Star Ball by first [[jump]]ing on top of it, pointing {{button|Wii|Wiimote}} straight up, and then tilting it in a direction while trying to move at a steady pace.

Once Mario rolls the Star Ball into the ball-opener, the ball explodes, and the Power Star within is released. The Power Star moves itself to a flagpole found at the end of the course, where Mario must climb up in order to collect it | Once Mario rolls the Star Ball into the ball-opener, the ball explodes, and the Power Star within is released.

The minigame [[Gyro for the Gold]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' takes heavy inspiration from the [[minigame]]s that use the Star Ball, where players also roll on balls through an obstacle course where music tempo is also dependent on how fast they are rolling. | The minigame [[Gyro for the Gold]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' takes heavy inspiration from the [[minigame]]s that use the Star Ball, where players also roll on balls through an obstacle course where music tempo is also dependent on how fast they are rolling. | ||
