Chance wheel from Wario Land 4

Thechance wheel,[1] orrevolving number block,[2] is the main feature ofThe Big Board inWario Land 4. It is ablock with a constantly moving set of numbers from 1 to 6 on the face, and a blue button on the bottom whereWario canjump up and hit. It has many purposes to help Wario make it through thelevel. When Wario stands below it, a ribbon appears, showing what Wario could gain from a hit of the chance wheel. The numbers stop rolling when hit, and then that number of spaces is counted on the ribbon. It can land on various events including switching all dotted red lines to solid blocks and vice versa, giving Wario health, changing Wario to one of hisforms, producingDice (to throw), damaging Wario with a lightning strike, and dropping aDiamond. Chance wheels can be used only once before disappearing.

In the latter part of the level after hitting theswitch, Wario can find a blue chance wheel known as aGoal Block,[1] which can be used multiple times. At the end of the prize ribbon is the level'sKeyzer; however, Wario must hit the exact number of ribbon spaces to obtain it.

On theHard andS-Hard modes, the numbers spin faster, and the player is more likely to need a certain item to progress.
