'''Bowser's Block Battle''' is the final boss [[minigame]] featured in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. This and [[Bowser Jr. Breakdown]] are the only boss minigames played on [[Bowser Station]], and players cannot choose from three other boss minigames. The same happens on [[DK's Jungle Ruins]]. [[Bowser]] fights as [[Giant Bowser|Super Bowser]] as he increases in size. | '''Bowser's Block Battle''' is the final boss [[minigame]] featured in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''.

The players must attack Bowser by rolling dice marked with their own faces and Bowser [[emblem]]s on the remaining sides. These dice are not typical Dice Blocks but objects that players can pick up and throw if they want to change what faces up. After 10 seconds, the rolls are set and dice can no longer be picked up (dice that are held by players when the time limit expires are thrown automatically, and the rolls are included). The dice that show the players' faces are converted into energy balls that players can shoot at Bowser for [[point]]s. Players attack in decreasing order of number of dice with their faces shown, so those with the most dice make the first move, and those with the fewest dice take a turn last. Players with equal numbers of dice with their characters' faces attack together.

Players with equal numbers of dice with their characters' faces attack together. After every player attacks, if any dice show Bowser’s emblem, he attacks by spitting a trio of [[fireball]]s once for each dice block, and anybody hit by a fireball loses a point. If no dice show his emblem, Bowser looks around the board in disbelief and groans in frustration. Bowser then throws a new set of dice onto the stage, and the process repeats. | ||
When his [[Health Meter|health]] drops below half, Bowser becomes even angrier and starts roaring loudly before | When his [[Health Meter|health]] drops below half, Bowser becomes even angrier and starts roaring loudly before becoming even larger than he was before, making the battle more dangerous. After tossing the dice onto the field, The stage tilts from right to left to complicate the players' attempts to roll the dice. If he gets any chances to attack, the fireballs are larger and faster than before, making them more difficult to avoid. He also gains one new attack: After everyone has attacked with their dice, Bowser rolls a large, spike-edged dice with an image of one of the six main bosses on it. (This die does not crush any players it lands on top of, so players can still make it tumble and change the image it shows.) After it lands, the camera zooms in to show which image was rolled. The dice disappears in a puff of smoke, and the players must evade one of six elaborate attacks: | ||
