    Bonus Stars are extra stars that first appeared in Super Mario World. By breaking the goal tape, you'll get more stars the higher you break it and if you get 100 of them, then you'll play a bonus game. In the Mario Party franchise, it is awarded to the players based on your performance at the end of the game. In Mario Parties 1-6, they can only give you 3 but in 7-DS, they can give you 3 out of 6 as chosen randomly. For example: If Yoshi advanced 454 spaces, Toad advanced 390, Luigi advanced 222 and Waluigi advanced 300, then Yoshi recieved the Running Star for moving the most spaces. Altogether there are 11 bonus stars in the series. Below are a list of all 11 bonus stars that you'll receive in the series:
