Super Mario Party Jamboree Rainbow Galleria Board Guide

With five new game boards, two remastered game boards from previous Mario Party titles, and several new game modes, Super Mario Party Jamboree brings great variety to the classic party game well-known and well-loved by fans. Rainbow Galleria is one of the five new boards in the game and is themed around a shopping mall, showcasing various event spaces and an aesthetically pleasing pastel color scheme.

The map is rated four out of five stars in difficulty rating, so it can prove somewhat complicated to get around with the multitude of new shops, items, and game mechanics. This guide will explore each map-specific shop and event in Rainbow Galleria, explaining each and detailing how to use them.

Koopa Troopa Stamp Stations

Collect All Four Stamps For A 50 Coin Reward

• Located: First, Second, and Third Floors
• Ran by: Koopa Troopa

Throughout Rainbow Galleria, there are four stamp stations: green, pink, orange, and blue. The green stamp station is located at the back right of the third floor, the pink stamp station is on the second floor to the left, the orange stamp station is at the back left of the third floor, and the blue stamp station is on the right side of the first floor.

Stamped sheets can be traded in for coins at the reception desk next to the board’s start point on the first floor. One stamp is worth 10 coins, two are worth 20 coins, three are worth 30 coins, and all four stamps are worth 50 coins when handed in together. Players can choose to exchange their incomplete sheets for fewer coins, or they can wait until they have a fully stamped sheet to earn the whole 50 coins.

Flash Sale

All Items Half Price For One Turn

• Located: All Shops (excluding the One-Coin Shop)
• Occurs: Every 5 Turns

During a flash sale, all items and stars are 50% off (excluding items in the One-Coin Shop, which remain at one coin). The best locations to try and get to during a flash sale are Star Spots, the Gold Shop, and the Super Shop, as they carry useful items that are usually quite expensive.

If players have Peach as a Jamboree Buddy while a flash sale is on and find themselves at a Star Spot, they can get two stars for 10 coins! Peach’s ability means that stars are already 50% off, making one star 10 coins and two stars 20 coins. The extra 50% off during a flash sale means one star can be bought for 5 coins and two stars for 10 coins with Peach.

Escalators & Koopa Troopa Elevator

Easy Travel Between Floors

• Located: Escalators on the First and Second Floor, Koopa Troopa Elevator on the First and Third Floor
• Purpose: Fast Travel

The Rainbow Galleria map features six escalators, making travel between floors quick and easy. Players can speed up escalator rides using the L or R button on the controller. Two are located at the back of the first floor, while four are positioned at either end of the second floor to go up to level three or back down to level one.

Koopa Troopa’s Elevator is positioned at the back of level one, allowing players to travel between the first and third floors for 5 coins (or 10 if a player has a Jamboree Buddy with them). This is an optional event, but it can be very helpful when a star appears on either the first or third floor when a player is on the opposite level.

Last-Place Shop

Only Accessible By The Person In Last Place

• Located: Third Floor (Left)
• Ran by: Blue Snift

Only players in last place can access the Last-Place Shop, where they receive 15 coins and can purchase items from the shop’s inventory. The shop’s inventory includes a Markup Sticker for 5 coins, a Triple Dice for 10 coins, a Swap Mirror for 7 coins, a Custom Dice Block for 12 coins, and a two-piece Star Steal Trap set for 10 coins.

The shop’s purpose is to offer the player in last place either a free item or a boost in coins to help them improve their ranking and can be greatly useful when luck just isn’t on a player’s side. The two event spaces outside the shop must be landed on directly by the player in last place to gain access to the shop.

Super Shop

A Super Shop For Super Items

• Located: Third Floor (Left)
• Ran by: Pink Shy Guy

​​​​​​​Further along the third floor is the Super Shop, where only “Super” items can be bought. The shop’s inventory includes a Super Swap Mirror for 15 coins, which functions like a normal Swap Mirror but allows players to choose which other player they wish to swap places with on the game board! Also available in the shop is a Super Creepy Dice, bought for 5 coins, which dictates that all other players can only roll 1-3 on their next turn (unless they have a dice item or mushroom to cancel it out).

Arguably, the most useful item in the shop is the Super Dueling Glove for 40 coins. This item allows a player to challenge another player to a two-player minigame, with one star from each player at stake. It’s highly recommended to visit this shop during a flash sale, where the Super Dueling Glove is available for just 20 coins – the price of a star – rather than its usual price on a regular turn.

Gold Shop

Buy Really Useful Exclusive Items

• Located: Third Floor (Right)
• Ran by: Golden Goomba

​​​​​​​As the name suggests, the Gold Shop exclusively sells Gold Items. These items cannot be found in any other shop in Rainbow Galleria, except for the Golden Pipe, which can be won as the Grand Prize in the Raffle.

If a player has a Jamboree Buddy, they can buy two items in the same turn. As a result, buying two Golden Pipes could allow players to acquire four stars in just two turns, provided they land on the Gold Shop on the first turn with their Jamboree Buddy and have enough coins.

Thrift Store

A Blessing And A Curse

• Located: Third Floor (Right)
• Ran by: Whomp

​​​​​​​At the Thrift Store, the Whomp forcefully purchases one of the player’s items. However, the upside is that Whomp buys the item for twice its selling price!

Depending on the item Whomp chooses to buy, this event space can be either a blessing or a curse. For example, if a player has a Loadstone, Whomp will buy it for 10 coins – far more than its usual value of 2 coins. On the other hand, players can risk losing their valuable Gold items from the Gold Shop, as this event space is just a few spaces away from Golden Goomba’s store!

Boo Shop

Peepa Sells Only One Item

• Located: Second Floor (Right)
• Ran by: Peepa

​​​​​​​The Boo Shop only sells one item: the Boo Bell, which can be purchased for 15 coins. It is the only shop with a singular event space, making it quite difficult to land on. Therefore, using a Custom Dice Block when nearby is recommended if a player wants to ensure they land on it.

A Boo Bell, unsurprisingly, summons Boo, allowing players to steal either coins or a star from another player. Stealing coins is free, but stealing a star costs 50 coins, making the total cost for a single star effectively 65 coins with this method.

Raffle Shop

Luck-Based Rewards For Shopping

• Located: Second Floor (Right)
• Ran by: Green Toad

​​​​​​​Depending on how many items a player has purchased, they can randomly draw colored balls from the Raffle Shop, each assigned to a specific value of coins. If a player pulls a golden ball, they win the grand prize: a Golden Pipe.

A white ball grants the player 1 coin, a green ball gives 5 coins, a blue ball awards 15 coins, and a red ball provides 30 coins. This event takes its inspiration from the Lottery Shop in Mario Party 4, a similar luck-based minigame.

Koopa Troopa Item Shop

The Largest Shop Inventory

• Located: Second Floor (Left)
• Ran by: Koopa Troopa

​​​​​​​The Koopa Troopa Item Shop is available on every board, but the inventory at Rainbow Galleria is very different as it contains a Markup Sticker for 5 coins and a Shop Hop Box for 8 coins. The Shop Hop box can be very useful on this game board, given the abundance of shops. However, its lack of specificity can be frustrating if a player is aiming for one shop in particular.

The regular stock is as follows: a Double Dice for 5 coins, a Pipe for 4 coins, a Warp Box for 7 coins, and a Custom Dice Block for 12 coins. Once the shop’s inventory is updated, a two-piece set of Star Steal Traps is also available to purchase for 10 coins. The Koopa Troopa Item Shop has the most available items and is arguably the most useful shop for short games due to the simplicity and familiarity of the items for all players.

One-Coin Shop

Every Item Costs Only One Coin

• Located: First Floor (Right)
• Ran by: Kamek

​​​​​​​The One-Coin Shop in Rainbow Galleria is the only one of its kind in Super Mario Party Jamboree, despite Kamek running other shops on other maps. The shop’s inventory starts as just a Creepy Dice Block and a Mushroom, but upgrades to hold a 10-Coin Steal Trap, then a Pipe. This shop is great value for money and is especially useful early on in the game.

As mentioned previously, the One-Coin Shop is the only shop on the board unaffected by Flash Sales. Therefore, while a Flash Sale is on, it’s better to aim for other shops on the board that make the most of the 50% off event.

Markup Sticker

A Rainbow Galleria Exclusive!

• Located: Koopa Troopa Shop and Last Place Shop
• Price: 5 Coins

​​​​​​​The Markup Sticker is an exclusive item to the Rainbow Galleria game board and is available only at the Koopa Troopa Item Shop and the Last-Place Shop for 5 coins. A player can use a Markup Sticker on an opponent to increase the price of all their purchasable items by 200%, effectively doubling the cost of stars and all items.

This is even the case when a player has a Jamboree Buddy, increasing the price of two stars from 40 coins to 80 coins. The Markup Sticker can be a great item to use if another player is close to a star and has only 20 coins, as it will prevent them from being able to afford a star.
