Sync & Swim! is one of Jimmy T's microgames in WarioWare: D.I.Y.
Gameplay[edit]
The game is based on the sport of synchronized swimming. The goal of the game is to follow the leader's movements by going in the same direction as them, using the on-screen directional buttons. About halfway through, the leader will switch directions. If all directions are followed, the game ends in a win; however, if the player presses the wrong arrow or takes too long to make a choice, they automatically lose.
Naming[edit]
"Sync & Swim" is a pun on "sync" (short for "synchronize") and the phrase "sink or swim", meaning "to fail or succeed no matter what".
