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]] or [[Luigi]]'s standard [[spin]], [[fireball]]s, [[Green Shell]]s and [[Red Shell]]s, and [[Rock Mario]]'s boulder attack. | | Aswell as mushrooms or star bits, some may contain lumas or toads, witch help you when you free them. Item Crystals can be found mostly on the first few stages and sometimes near boss', though they can be found elsware. |
|
| |
|
| There are also rare large crystals that contain [[Power Star]]s. Large crystals require two spins to be shattered.

| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| |
| ====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
| |
| [[File:SMG Castle Spin.png|left|200px|thumb|Mario destroys some crystals.]]
| |
| Crystals in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' first appear during the introductory cutscene, where the [[Airship]]s are shown shooting crystal bits at Toads.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====

| |
| Crystals in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' retain their appearance and behavior. In the opening, 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.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party 10''===
| |
| Three crystal-like recipients appear on different sides of the [[Rosalina Board]], containing Star Bits, in ''[[Mario Party 10]]''. 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.
| |
| | |
| ===''Dr. Mario World''===
| |
| Crystals in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' can be seen on several planets on the [[World 8 (Dr. Mario World)|World 8]] map.
| |
| | |
| ===''Minecraft''===
