Power star

Power Stars are items in Super Mario Galaxy 2. It is a shiny golden star that has two small eyes. The main point of the game is to collect as many power stars as you can. Power Stars are usually found at the end of a level. When you touch the power star, the mission will end. There are always 2 or 3 power stars in every galaxy. Some power stars are hidden in secret areas in the galaxies and some will only appear when a prankster comet appears. Some Power Stars will be stuck in large crystals, and some are only carried by a galaxies native species. Without a certain number of power stars, there is no way to progress through the game. For example, 3 power stars are needed to unlock Spin Dig galaxy, and 120 power stars are required to unlock the green star challenge. There are also many different types of power stars, which all vary in size and colors. Once you have all 242 power stars, you have officially completed the game.
