Sprite of Sarcopha Guy in Wario: Master of Disguise

Sarcopha Guys are mummy enemies in Wario: Master of Disguise that appear in Poobah the Pharaoh's Pyramid. When Wario first sees them, they will be inside their grave. When Wario gets closer, they will pop out and hurt him if he gets too near. Sarcopha Guys are immune to Sparky Wario's electricity, but can be defeated using any other attack.

The in-game description states that Sarcopha Guys are "a bit bashful", and indeed blush when they open their graves. Their name is a homophonic pun on "sarcophagi", the plural form of "sarcophagus", referring to the tomb that mummies are stored in.

In-game description[edit]

This mummy got his name from the titanium-alloy sarcophagus he was discovered in. He's a bit bashful, so he doesn't get out much.
