Bowser's Warped Orbit

Bowser's Warped Orbit is a board in Mario Party 8. It is centered around a giant battle station in space. The board is unlocked after story mode is completed.

Story
The player is about to receive the Star Rod when Bowser shows up and takes it. The player jumps onto the Star Platform and heads to space, where you duel battle against a Blooper or a Hammer Bro.. If the player wins the duel, Bowser returns the Star Rod and declare that he's the "Superstar". He then challenges the player to a battle in deep space in the mini-game Superstar Showdown. If the player beats the game, they will become the "Superstar". Bowser's Warped Orbit then becomes playable in the Party Tent, and the boss the player fought becomes unlocked.

Description
Bowser's Warped Orbit is a very unique board, it is one of the very few boards with two-way pathways. If the player steps on certain spaces, Bowser will yell, "Let's do the Crime Warp again!", and pull a lever, switching the direction of the board. The only way to obtain stars is to steal them from another player using Bowser Candy or Bullet Candy.
