Hex Areas are walk-by locations which appear in Mario Party DS.
Description[]
Hex Areas are comparable to the Orb Space from Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7 as well as Candy Areas from Mario Party 8 in that they are not a Space to land on but rather to pick up an item at. Hex Areas are located between two Spaces at a specific point of each game board, and are indicated by a floating Hex, which a character automatically receives upon walking to it. After this occurs, a different Hex appears in its place, awaiting someone to pick it up.
