'''Bob-omb Factory''' is a board in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', and the second one played in solo mode. It is an industrial location where conveyor belts are the main gimmick. Throughout the board, [[Bob-omb]]s can be seen being assembled and transported in the surroundings. The players ride in the Factory Walker, the starting vehicle in this board; the Gear Shifter and the King Bob-omb Bus can be purchased at the Museum for 200 [[Mario Party Point|Party Points]] each. The mid-boss fought here through the boss fort is [[Whomp]] and the boss fought at the end of the factory is [[King Bob-omb]]. 

==Layout==  
The players start out in a room consisting of a zigzagging pathway intersected by an oval conveyor belt. Five of the ten spaces that correspond to each intersection are [[Event Space]]s which, when triggered, move the conveyor belt (and consequently the space itself and the players as well) around, possibly leading to Mini Stars along the way. At the end of the path there are stairs which lead to the fortress, where a mid-boss ([[Whomp Stomp]] in solo mode) is fought. After the minigame, the players head through a dark corridor to the next section.

The next room is a long and straight stretch going left to right. An initial row of four spaces is followed by a conveyor belt, which changes directions with each Dice Block hit. The direction it moves as the car goes past the fourth space determines which of the two following routes the players will take: the blue path is the luckier one, containing [[Lucky Space]]s and [[Mini Star]]s; conversely, the orange path contains [[Mini Ztar]]s and an [[Unlucky Space]]. There are Event Spaces on either side that move the car to the other path. This room also introduces signs that, when passed by, cause a Bob-omb to fall onto the vehicle. The Bob-omb explodes after their machine has passed 10 spaces, making the captain lose half of their [[Mini Star]]s. The paths merge again as the room ends at the [[Captain Event Space]] to the Side-by-Side Zone (Conveyor Belt Way in the [[Prima Games]] guide).

After the Captain Event, the players meet green Toad, triggering the "Almost there!" event that replaces six spaces ahead with [[Bowser Space]]s (or three if the player says "no" to Bowser). This final room is a simple zigzagging line where one last Bob-omb sign is located. At the end of the factory there is the [[Bowser Gate]] and the boss minigame ([[Bombard King Bob-omb]] in solo mode).

===Side-by-Side Zone===
[[File:MP9 Bob-omb Factory Side by Side Zone.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Side-by-Side Zone.]]
In this Captain Event, the players leave their team vehicle and board carts that travel down a short path. The captain who landed on the [[Captain Event Space]] selects which path each player takes. Regardless of who rolled the dice, all players move simultaneously. Between the second and third spaces of the paths lie two sets of three [[Mini Star]]s which begin the event on the two leftmost paths, between the fifth and sixth spaces lie sets of five Mini Stars which begin in the two center paths, and after the final space lie sets of 10 Mini Stars which begin on the right. The second, third, fifth, sixth, and final spaces are [[Happening Space|Event Space]]s, and landing on these causes all Mini Stars to shift one path to the left. CPU players will always put the player on the rightmost side if they are the captain.
