Overall board tips and strategies
- Get ministars as they come: Do not use special dice to get them (except when it can make you gain >5 ministars, or it does more harm to the opponent(s)).
- Around every 5 turns, if there is no minigame played in that period, the game will very likely make you play a minigame, most commonly at the dice space.
-
DO NOT use special dice to land on pipe lucky space. They have a ⅓ chance of giving you only 1 mini star, ⅓ chance of giving you 3 ministars, and ⅓ chance of giving you 5 ministars (2 in Toad Road).
3 ministars can also be gained at Toad Houses, which would also gain you 1 extra special dice. Besides, they are also common on the path.

Almost there event:
All players in last will be given a slow dice block. (If all 4 players tied, they all gets the slow dice block)
Bowser event:
Bowser will ask the captain if they wsnt "a bunch of presents". "Yes" will results in some spaces turns into Bowser spaces. "No" will turn less spaces into Bowser Space, but sometimes (insert probability here) it will still treats it as a "Yes" and place more Bowser spaces.
- If you want to sabotage other players, pick "Yes" when Bowser asks you if you want "a bunch of presents"
- If you want to play it save, pick "No".
