The Lucky Space in the tutorial.

The Lucky Space is a space in Mario Party 8. There is at least one on each board (with the shape of the space being different on each, including the tutorial). Each Lucky Space will transport the player to an otherwise inaccessible area of the board, where they can expect to find a small path of Blue Spaces leading to a free Star. At the end of the path, the player will return to the main board. In most cases, there is an unlimited number of Stars that players can receive from revisiting these paths.


Here is what happens if the player land on one:

DK's Treetop Temple: If a player lands on a Lucky Space, they'll ride a floating platform to a large platform behind the main board. On the large platform is a path of Blue Spaces, each with three coins on them. At the end of the platform is a free Star, and a Warp Pipe that will send the player back to the start.

Goomba's Booty Boardwalk: If a player lands on this board's Lucky Space, they will hop on a Dolphin and be transported to a small island west of the main path. On the island is a small path of Blue Spaces, each with three coins on them. At the end of the path is a Treasure Chest guarded by two Goombas, who will reward the player with a Star, and then return the player to the Lucky Space. The island also has three coins on each of the spaces.

King Boo's Haunted Hideaway: If a player lands on the lucky space on this board they will go up the stairs next to them and they will be one floor up and they will have a path covered in 3 coins on each space and at the very end you is a pipe in which you will be immediately transported to where King Boo is. If a player starts the re-shuffle of the house any player upstairs will be transported out of the house.

Koopa's Tycoon Town: If the player lands on the first Lucky Space, he or she will be driven off by a Koopa with "A Curiosity for Velocity" to a street with six blue panels, each with three coins on it, and a three-star hotel. If they land on the second Lucky Space, they will wind up in a similar area, but it won't be the same as the first.

Shy Guy's Perplex Express: By landing on a Lucky space, the player will be dropped off at Payday Waystation. It's a one-way path consisting of eight spaces, which have 3 coins on them per visit, with a Shy Guy at the end who will give you a free star. Once you've gotten the star, two Shy Guys will bring you back to the start of the train.
