The Skewers in the second area are replaced with [[Burner]]s that halve the current captain's hearts if they land on the right space. However, they will not dislodge the vehicle from its spot, and not all of them can be active at once (4 will be active on the first wall, and 6 will be active on the second wall). Bowser chooses which Burners will be active when Team Mario arrives at the split in the path; by distributing the active engines, he can influence the opponents into taking a less advantageous path (which has fewer Dice Block and Heart Spaces, but also fewer Burners).

If Team Mario reaches the third and final area, that is, after the homestretch, a scene shows Bowser bursting into the room (putting him one space behind Team Mario no matter how far ahead they were before entering the throne room), growing giant, and fusing his dice into [[Super Bowser Dice Block|a single large die]]. This new die replaces one side with a Bowser icon; if Bowser rolls the icon, he will catch up to Team Mario no matter how far away they are. Bowser is also able to roll his die after each active team member's roll (instead of waiting until everyone rolls the die). As a trade-off, Bowser does not get a bonus from [[Bowser Jr.]] at the "Almost There" flag.

Despite the unique upgrades, Team Mario and Bowser's goals are still unchanged; the former must make a break for Bowser Jr. and the Super Star at the end of the course, while Bowser attempts to finish his enemies off with his minigames and Bowser Jr. spaces. If Bowser wins, he will revert to his normal size and celebrate his victory with [[Bowser Jr.]] and a [[Hammer Bro]]. If Team Mario wins, the four teammates will celebrate their victory, leaving Bowser (still in his giant size) stomping his foot wherever he was when the Super Star was claimed.
