List of WarioWare: Twisted! microgames

From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search

The following is a list of microgames in WarioWare: Twisted!, listed in the order they appear in the Spindex. There are a total of 223 microgames, the second-most in the entire series after WarioWare Gold.

A microgame with a bold font has a chance to appear during high score runs, but does not appear in story mode.

Mini Spin[edit]

These microgames are hosted by Mona and require small moves. The intermission stage consists of a TV broadcast of Sal Out performing the song "Mona Pizza" being viewed by the customers who ordered the pizza, who switch channels between a microgame and the performance, with the channel indicator acting as a score counter. The number of lives is indicated by pizzas. If the player wins, the crowd cheers. If the player loses, Sal Out trips. When the player loses all their lives, the TV turns static. This is the only stage in the game without the "Speed Up!", "Boss Stage", "Game Over", and stage clear jingles.
