- This article is about the item from the Mario Party series. For the object from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, see Warp Block (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time).
- Not to be confused with Warp Box.
The Warp Block, referred to as the Warp Box in Melon Mayhem, is a block in the Mario Party. It first appears in Mario Party.
Description[]
Upon being used, the Warp Block transports the character who hits it to another character's space. In turn, the character whom they travel is then transported to their initial spot. It has a rainbow color, not unlike Item Boxes in several appearances. In Mario Party Superstars, the Warp Block depicts the rainbow color shifting, and the question marks on all sides are replaced by two light blue circular arrows that appear on one side, instead of all sides.
In Mario Party 4, the Warp Block is replaced by the Warp Pipe, and has been its successor ever since, though Yoshi's bio in the Mario Party 4 instruction booklet mentions them, possibly intended to be referring to Warp Spaces instead.
Mario Party DS has an item analog to the Warp Block, called the Warp Dice Block. It does not switch the character who used it with another character. Instead, it lets the user warp to a random space.
In Mario Party: Star Rush, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Super Mario Party, the Warp Box from Super Mario 3D Land takes on the Warp Block's role, teleporting the player to a chosen rival's space when used, but does not swap places with the rival, and the Warp Pipe item is absent.
In Mario Party series[]
Mario Party[]
It can be bought at the Mushroom Shop. If activated, the Warp Block appears in place of the regular Dice Block to be used automatically for the player's turn.
Mario Party 2[]
The Warp Block can be purchased at the Item Shop on the board for 15 coins (17 in Bowser Land) or obtained from the Item mini-game. It can be used anytime. It is also Yoshi's favorite item. Unlike in Mario Party, the player can roll the regular Dice Block after using it without the need of a Mushroom Space.
The Warp Block costs 15 coins
Mario Party 3[]
The Warp Block has the same role as before, except it has become cheaper, costing only 5 coins.
Mario Party Superstars[]
Redesigned Warp Block in Mario Party Superstars
After a long absence, the Warp Block returns in Mario Party Superstars. It reprises its function from Mario Party 2 and Mario Party 3, but now costs only 7 coins. The game also introduced a variation, the Super Warp Block, which can appear only during the final five turns or from an Item Bag.
