Chicken Pinch

Chicken Pinch is a microgame in the Strange folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!. It reappears as part of Mona's set in WarioWare Gold.

Gameplay
There is a large set of tongs floating above the ground in the middle of the screen. The player can press the button to pinch with the tongs. A Chicken Bug runs onto the screen, stopping and jumping directly underneath the tongs. The player must catch the Chicken Bug by pinching with good timing. If the Chicken Bug is caught while doing a backflip, it will be held by its legs, instead of its whole body.


 * 1st level difficulty: The Chicken Bug jumps twice, then does a backflip.
 * 2nd level difficulty: The Chicken Bug waits for one beat, jumps once, then does a backflip.
 * 3rd level difficulty: The Chicken Bug waits for three beats, then does a backflip. In WarioWare Gold, there is a possible chance that three Chicken Bugs appear and one of them jumps high enough to be caught.

In WarioWare Gold, a Chicken Bug has a random chance to have a single hair on its head. Pinching only the hair counts as a failure, as the Chicken Bug will immediately flee.

Mission (WarioWare Gold)

 * Emergency Haircut: The player has to pinch off the chicken bug's hair.
