Cooking Bug is one of Ashley's microgames in WarioWare: D.I.Y.

Gameplay[edit]

The goal of the game is to cook two dumplings completely. This is done by alternating taps on each dumpling; one dumpling can only be cooked further if the other is tapped before it. A bug flies over the dumplings throughout the game, hindering the player. Two taps on each dumpling are required to win the game, with the dumplings disappearing after being cooked. Failing to cook either dumpling will result in a loss.

Naming[edit]

The name is a play on different definition of the word "bug". It can refer to the literal bugs or an enthusiasm for something.
