Variant of Amp

A Zap Orb is an orb in Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7 . It contains an Amp. In Mario Party 6, players can place it on a space to serve as a roadblock. It costs 15 coins at an Orb hut, and can be obtained on E. Gadd's Garage and Faire Square. Opponents that pass through a space containing the orb get shocked by the Amp, losing five coins, and an additional five coins for every remaining space they pass through on their turn. When the players are under the effect of a Metal Mushroom Orb, the Amps will try to shock them, but they disappear after that. In Mario Party 7, it serves the same purpose, but opponents lose only three coins per space, instead of five. It costs 15 coins at an Orb hut, and can be obtained on Pagoda Peak, Neon Heights, and Windmillville. In both games, if a player passes by another Zap Orb while one is already in effect, the Zap Orbs stack up. If the player runs out of coins, the effect wears off. It is the opposite of the Flower Orb, which grants the player three coins for each space they pass.
