A '''Crystal'''<ref>Browne, Catherine (May 23, 2010). ''Super Mario Galaxy 2: Prima Official Game Guide'', page 4.</ref> is an object found in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Crystals are quartz-like objects that can be found in multiple areas of the [[level]]s in the two games, and they typically hold objects or items. | |||
There are also rare | Inside Crystals are items such as [[coin]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, and the occasional [[Launch Star]] or [[Life Mushroom]]. There are also octahedron Crystals, which contain only power-ups. Most of these Crystals contain [[Star Bit]]s; however, some may even contain [[Luma]]s or [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, who help the player out once they are freed. Crystals sometimes contain enemies, namely [[Goomba]]s. The quantity of Star Bits obtained averages from three to ten, and most of the Crystals found throughout the game contain four to six. | ||
Crystals have fairly weak structures and can be shattered in both ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games by a variety of attacks, including [[Mario]]'s standard [[spin]], [[fireball]]s, [[Green Shell]]s and [[Red Shell]]s, and [[Rock Mario]]'s boulder attack. | |||
There are also large, rare Crystals that contain [[Power Star]]s. Large Crystals require two spins to be shattered. | |||

Crystals in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' | Crystals reappear in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', retaining their appearance and behavior from the previous game. In the opening of this game, they are seen dropping from the sky during [[Bowser]]'s attack on the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Anything hit by the crystal bits is trapped in a Crystal, unable to move. Some Crystals are also opaque, hiding whatever is inside until they are broken. These Crystals have a rounder appearance than the transparent variety. | ||

In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', three Crystal-like recipients appear on different sides of the [[Rosalina Board]], containing Star Bits. When the player lands on an [[Event Space]], the Crystal associated with it opens and empties itself of the Star Bits, commencing a short [[minigame]] where the player has to collect as many Star Bits as possible within a time limit. | |||
