Lucky Space

The Lucky Space is a type of space, found in Mario Party 8. When stepped on, it takes the player to a place otherwise unable to go to, at the end of the path is a free star.

DK's Treetop Temple
When stepped on the Lucky Space, Mario is taken to a long stone platform filled with coins with a star at the end.

Goomba's Booty Boardwalk
A Dolphin will take the player to a secret sacred island, with five spaces with 3 coins each and a large treasure chest with a star in it. Upon reaching the chest two Goomba god statues will beg the player to take the star and go away so they can sleep.

King Boo's Haunted Hideaway
King Boo's Haunted Hideaway's Lucky Space involves Mario being taken up to the attic of the haunted mansion. At the end is King Boo and you still have to pay 10 coins to buy a star.

Shy Guy's Perplex Express
This Lucky Space on this board triggers the player getting dropped off at a train station lined with coins. When all the coins are collected, a Shy Guy conductor takes Mario back to the train with a hand car, but you'll still get a free star.

Koopa's Tycoon Town
This is the only Mario Party 8 board where two lucky spaces can be found. At each location, a koopa in a blue convertible pulls up to the curb and offers Mario a ride. He can't refuse. The Koopa speeds off and swerves around town and drop him off at a sidewalk covered in coins. In the middle, there's a three star hotel that can be bought with one coin!

Bowser's Warped Orbit
If you land on a lucky space here, a Shy Guy will take you to a separate part of the board. There is no free star, however there is a lot of Bowser Candy and Bullet Candy- and using those candies is the key to winning the game.
