Gameplay[edit]

In this microgame, the player has to perform moves to defeat the enemy, in a similar manner to that of an RPG.

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! / WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$![edit]

To make an action, they must select the correct spelling of the move. First, the player attacks; after that, they use defense and finally magic. Finally, the player has to press the A Button button at the right time to hit "Success", and to avoid hitting "Failure". The player fails if they select the wrong option or take too long to select any option.

  • 1st level difficulty: The player fights an enemy named Hungraa. They have 2 moves to choose from.
  • 2nd level difficulty: The player fights an enemy named Refiller. They have 3 moves to choose from.
  • 3rd level difficulty: The player fights an enemy named Munchor. They have 4 moves to choose from.
