The Bob-omb Orb is a type of Orb in the Mario Party series. It first appears in Mario Party 6 and returns in Mario Party 7.
Description[]
In both of its appearances, the Bob-omb Orb can only be placed on a nearby space and not used by the user directly. Its effect is triggered when an opponent either passes or lands onto the space. In Mario Party 6, landing on a Bob-omb Orb halves the remaining number of spaces that character has to move on for that turn. In Mario Party 7, Bob-omb Orb only appears in the board Pagoda Peak. Here, if a character lands onto the space, they are instead sent to a lower level of the board.
In both games, a character can avoid being affected by a Bob-omb Orb if they are under the effect of a Metal Mushroom Orb.
