Pagoda Peak

The map of Pagoda Peak.

Pagoda Peak is a China-themed board from Mario Party 7 that resembles an ancient Chinese mountain (said to be 4000 years old) mixed with Japanese buildings. Here, Kung Fu Koopas are in charge of the Orb Shops. An old Koopa, named Koopa Master, lives at the top of the mountain. He will sell a character who reaches the peak of the mountain a Star for the amount of coins shown above his house (10, 20, 30 or 40). Each time someone buys a Star from him, the price of each additional Star will go up by ten coins (to a maximum of forty coins).

Events

• Landing on the Green Space near the start lets Toadsworth ask if the player wanted to use one of his bottle rockets. Accepting let the player choose which one to ride on. Then, when they are tied up onto it, the chosen rocket took them to a higher part of the board, or back to the start of the board.
• Landing on a Green Spaces next to one of the Gongs of Fate made Master Koopa appear and let the player bash the gong to change the price of the current Star. He then gives them coins.
• The Green Space next to Kung Fu Falls made Master Koopa appear again to let the player try and grab coins that fell from the falls. If a player gets all the coins that come, Master Koopa gives them a Star.
• The Green Space next to the Burning Rock made players try and fan out the flames with a large fan. They would be able to get coins, or even a Star, depending on how fast they put the flames out.
• Landing on the Green Space on the Chinese dragon's tongue takes players in its mouth, and spit-shoot them out in blue flames, sending them all the way back to start.

When Bowser Time comes along, Bowser does one of four things:

• Takes a souvenir photograph of all the players, and forces each of them to pay for it. The players will pay either 10 coins or 20 coins for the photo. He then leaves and gives nobody the photo.
• Flattens one of the Orb Shops, and replaces it with one of his own (called Bowser City). Koopa Kid stops anyone who goes by, and throws them into the shop, where Bowser sells them a worthless item for twenty coins.
• Leaps off the mountain and smashes one of the bridges, leaving players who wanted to cross it stuck. The bridge reappears the next turn.
• Leaps off the mountain, causing a tremor that sends all the players falling to a lower part of the board.

In Solo Mode, players have to beat their opponent by collecting 100 coins and reaching the top first (Master Koopa gives them a star (because the star cost is 100 coins).

The board consists of a small town, two dojos (one of them where Master Koopa resides), and the rest being of mountains and events.

Trivia

• The photograph Bowser takes is based on the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, which matches with the Chinese theme of the board.
• There is a real life Pagoda Peak, although it is located not in China, but in Antarctica.
• This is the smallest board in the game.
  • Not including boards in Solo Mode or Story Mode, with 42 spaces, this is the smallest board in any Mario Party game.
