A Star Exchange,[1] originally known as a Star Space (or star space), a Star Spot (or Star Splurge Space at DK's Stone Statue) in Mario Party DS, and generically a Star in Mario Party 10, is a space in the Mario Party series. When a player character passes one, a character, usually the guide, offers them to trade a number of coins, usually 20, for a Star. However, depending on the board, the cost can range from as low as 5 coins to as high as 40. On several boards, the Star Exchange moves elsewhere once the Star has been received, but there are exceptions, the earliest being Mario's Rainbow Castle from Mario Party, but also Faire Square from Mario Party 6 or DK's Stone Statue in Mario Party DS. Prior to Mario Party 6, the Star Space may sometimes appear directly where a character is standing, although that character cannot begin their turn with the option to buy the Star.
On Party Rules in Super Mario Party Jamboree, every board except Mario's Rainbow Castle has a Homestretch event titled "Add one Star Exchange" that adds a second Star Exchange.
