Slow Dice Blocks are a type of specialDice Blocks appearing inMario Party 9 andMario Party 10. They are similar to normal Dice Blocks, but are completely gold in color and the numbers are blue. The numbers on the Dice Block will scroll by slowly, allowing the user to roll a specific number easier. They work similarly to theSlow 'Shroom Orb and theSlowgo Candy, the only difference being that the player should hit
as soon as the number the player wants to get appears for the player to get the desired effect. The player must be careful not to shake the
, making this Dice Block spin faster and get bigger, thus the numbers will scroll faster. The harder the player shakes the, the faster the numbers scroll. Slow Dice Blocks can be obtained by landing on aDice Block Space (both games), from aToad House (both games), or aSpin Space (Mario Party 9 only). Another way of obtaining a Slow Dice Block is for the player to be in last place when the "Almost There!/Homestretch!" event occurs.
InMario Party 10, there is also a1-2-3 Dice Block variant called the1-2-3 Slow Dice Block that only appears in Bowser Party mode.
InMario Party: Island Tour,Super Mario Party,Mario Party Superstars andSuper Mario Party Jamboree, while the Slow Dice Block does not appear, theCustom Dice Block functions identically as it allows the user to directly select a number to roll. Its iteration inSuper Mario Party resembles the Slow Dice Block.
