'''Star Blocks''' appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They serve as goals for every chapter in the game, except for chapter 8-4. After one of the four heroes hits one of these blocks, the chapter will end, and the player will have the option to save. After that, there is a short dialogue and/or cutscene, then the next chapter will start (or, in the case of any chapter-4 levels, the player will return to Flipside).

'''Star Blocks''' are a type of [[block]] that act as goals for each sub-chapter in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They are rainbow-colored blocks with a spinning star inside. After one of the four heroes hits a Star Block, the sub-chapter ends, and the player is prompted to save. If the sub-chapter has not been completed before, there will be a brief narration segment before the next sub-chapter begins.


==Trivia==
The final sub-chapter of each chapter is completed by getting a [[Pure Heart]] (in Chapters 1-4 to 7-4) or saving the world (in Chapter 8-4). If the heroes revisit such a sub-chapter, a Star Block appears at the end of the level which sends the heroes back to [[Flipside]].

Star Blocks are a type of block that act as goals for each sub-chapter in Super Paper Mario. They are rainbow-colored blocks with a spinning star inside. After one of the four heroes hits a Star Block, the sub-chapter ends, and the player is prompted to save. If the sub-chapter has not been completed before, there will be a brief narration segment before the next sub-chapter begins.

The final sub-chapter of each chapter is completed by getting a Pure Heart (in Chapters 1-4 to 7-4) or saving the world (in Chapter 8-4). If the heroes revisit such a sub-chapter, a Star Block appears at the end of the level which sends the heroes back to Flipside.
