Tightrope is one of 9-Volt's microgames in WarioWare: D.I.Y.

Gameplay[edit]

This microgame is based on the Tightrope Walk minigame from Wii Fit. A Mii is standing on a tightrope, and begins to lose their balance. The player must tap either the left or right side of the on-screen Wii Balance Board, corresponding to the direction the Mii should lean to correct their balance. If the player taps the side the Mii is already leaning towards, or takes too long to correct the Mii's balance, the Mii will fall down, causing the game to be lost.

Naming[edit]

The title of the microgame is abbreviated due to the 12-character limit for titles in WarioWare: D.I.Y.
