Shadow Star Spaces are a type of space in Mario Party 6.
Description[]
Shadow Star Spaces are essentially the opposite of a Star Space. If a character reaches the space, Bowser gives them a Shadow Star, causing them to lose one Star, or 20 coins if they do not have any Stars. Like the Star Space, reaching a Shadow Star Space does not count towards the Dice Block roll, and even walking up to a Shadow Star Space triggers the effects of it.
In Mario Party 6[]
Shadow Star Spaces only appear in two boards, Castaway Bay and Clockwork Castle, but only during certain circumstances. In Castaway Bay, the Shadow Star Space appears when Bowser and Donkey Kong shift their position around, while in Clockwork Castle, Bowser replaces Donkey Kong at night and alters the Shadow Star Space with him when he moves.
