The Snack Orb is a type of Orb in the Mario Party series. It first appears in Mario Party 5, as the Bone Capsule, and returns in Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7 under its current name, Snack Orb.
Effects[]
This capsule itself is used by one to use a Chain Chomp to attack a random target to steal coins or stars from (depending if the target has a star). (This is similar to the Boo Repellent/Gaddlight from Mario Party 3 and 4.) When the capsule is used, the victim player can throw a bone to the Chain Chomp and scare him away (when he is after their coins or stars). Then the bone falls off the edge. And the Chain Chomp (summoned by the player) is unable to steal any coins or stars by any attack opponent in the process. Then the player --who summoned the Chain Chomp (via the Chain Chomp Capsule)-- ends up wasting 5 coins (to steal coins) or 30 coins (to steal a star) for nothing.
In Mario Party 6, the effects are identical, although the Snack Orb and is found only on the boards Snowflake Lake and Pyramid Park, both of where Chain Chomps are known to steal stars. In Mario Party 7, a Snack Orb is not used on opponents, but rather protects the user for three turns from attacks, including Red Spaces and more uncommonly Chain Chomps.
