In this board, you circle around a giant lotus with fun events along the way. BTW this is my first board
You can be taken to the center of the lotus where every space you move grants you 3 coins (Credits to Airsola for the layout of the event), you can lose 20 coins, everyone's items can get shuffled (Credits to Airsola again for the layout) or you can have a 50/50 to get 10 coins or an item (Credits to Rain on Discord for making this)!

1.1 UPDATE
Moved the bank somewhere else so that there isn't a bank, boo, and an item shop next to each other.
Thanks to Mar&luna23 on discord, this board now has a custom song!
Buffed and fixed one of the events so that it doesn't say "Test Message". You can now either get 10 coins or a good item.
The event that was being worked on is now fixed (everyone's items gets shuffled)

1.2 UPDATE
Many people have been saying that the shop is messed up with the Warp Block and Plunder Chest being swapped and the Golden Mushroom costing 30 coins, so I fixed that.
Tried fixing the coin loss event.

1.3 UPDATE
Added slightly more item spaces (7 -> 9), so that more opportunities to get items are given.
Nerfed the center lotus. Now you will get a range between 1-3 coins (Event layout by Airsola) instead of 3 coins guaranteed.
The coin loss event should be fixed.
Added Snifit Patrol. Now you can't get Skeleton Keys because there are no gates.
Added specific odds to the 10 coins or item event:
ITEMCHANCE
Boo Repellent14.8%
Golden Mushroom14.8%
Lucky Lamp14.8%
Boo Bell11.1%
Magic Lamp11.1%
Bowser Phone7.4%
Bowser Suit7.4%
Koopa Kard7.4%
Barter Box3.7%
Lucky Charm3.7%
Wacky Watch3.7%
Gave the text at the entrance image a visual change, to make it more vibrant.

1.31 UPDATE
Added Reverse Mushroom to the Snifit Patrol, so that you don't cheese the center lotus.
Added 4 star spaces instead of 3, so that people who wanna play on 20 turns have some mercy.

BIRTHDAY EVENT (June 14th - June 21st)!
Superbuffed the center lotus! You get a range between 5-10 coins. Then it goes to 10-20 coins at the last 2 spaces.
Superbuffed the 10 coins or item spaces.
Added 1 more star space.
Added 2 more ? spaces.

Hope you enjoy the board!

Title: Pretty Board, Bad Game Design

The art is nice, clean, readable, and colorful. That’s the only good thing I can say.

The board has no junctions at all, so there’s zero control over your route. Aside from using items, there’s no real decision-making. Mario Party works best with a balance of chaos and strategy; here it’s just rolling dice and hoping for the best.

The central “lotus” space is pure luck. Landing on it gives big rewards, mainly coins, with no risk. You can’t plan for it, and those who hit it snowball ahead.

Because the layout is one big loop, movement items dominate. The whole match becomes a race to the star, with nothing else mattering. Happening Spaces weren’t intuitive and added little to the game.

By turn 10 of our 20 turn game, we were bored. The pacing is flat, the gameplay repetitive, and it’s arguably worse than any official Mario Party board. Despite the views and downloads we did not enjoy our time playing this board. I would highly suggest that you think about what you value in a Mario Party board before deciding if this board is worth playing.
