Peek A Boo is one of Jimmy T's microgames played during the Jimmy Coaster stage in WarioWare: Snapped!
Gameplay[edit]
Before the microgame begins, the player is required to make use of the Nintendo DSi camera and line up their head with the picture in the center of the screen.
The microgame opens on a crying baby. In order to calm it down, the player must play peek-a-boo with the infant, by first covering their face with their hands (causing the baby to stop crying), then uncovering it. When done successfully, the baby will laugh as the words "Thank you" appears on the screen.
Sometimes, certain things will be swapped out the moment the game detects that the player's face is being covered by their hands. This includes the face of a handsome young man being laid over the baby's face, or the baby's plush toy being replaced by a different plush toy.
After the five microgames of the Jimmy Coaster have been cleared, a slideshow comic made out of of candid pictures of the player during gameplay of each microgame can be viewed, re-contextualized for the comic's story. The photo for Peek A Boo gets a specific scenario depending on which panel of the comic it's shown as, determined by the order the microgame was played in:
- The Big Job: Fifth panel. The player's character, applying for a job to a mob boss, looks dejected as the boss tells them to take out the garbage.
- The Boss's Secret: Third panel. The player's character, the boss's wife, stops her husband from leaving as she has something important to tell him.
- Yoo-hoo! It's Katie! (EU: Yoo-hoo! It's Katrine!): Fifth panel. The player's character, Katie (Katrine in the British English version), finds herself falling in love with the handsome young man she bumped into earlier, covering her face and blushing madly.
- Head over Heels for Harvey: Fourth panel. The player's character, a lovestruck girl, blushes in embarrassment as Harvey reveals he was awake the whole time.
- Billy and the Love Beans: Second panel. The player's character, Billy, cries, saddened that nobody will love him, as a peculiar merchant offers him some love beans.
- Jack and the Beans' Attack: First panel. The player's character reveals they got smacked hard by Jack, when the merchant offers him some magic beans.
- Ninja School: Fifth panel. The player cries after getting hit in the face by Kat's shuriken, while she and Ana jump with joy.
- Group Photo: Fourth panel. The player has pushed Mona, Wario, Jimmy T, Kat and Ana aside as the group photo gets taken.
