Power Outage is one of Dr. Crygor's microgames in WarioWare: Twisted! and returns in WarioWare Gold as one of Ashley & Red's microgames.

Gameplay[edit]

The game's purpose is to light all the candles found. To do so, the player has to rotate a flame until it reaches the top of another candle. If done so, the game is won.

  • 1st level difficulty: There is one candle to light.
  • 2nd level difficulty: There is either one candle that requires more twisting to light, or there are two candles to light.
  • 3rd level difficulty: There are either two candles that require more twisting to light, or there are three candles to light.

In WarioWare Gold, the wall in the background shows a painting related to Orbulon if the player wins the microgame.

Naming[edit]

A "power outage" is an interruption of a power supply, usually electricity. This is appropriate for the microgame's premise of lighting candles in the dark.

Notes[edit]

  • In WarioWare: Twisted!, the music's BPM is incorrect, leading to a brief silence near the end of the microgame.
