Wario's Woods



Wario's Woods is a puzzle game released for the Super NES in 1993, and later released on the NES in 1994, the last game to be released for the console in North America. It was also one of the many playable NES games in Animal Crossing for the Nintendo GameCube.

The plot of the game is that Toad was taking a walk to a place he thought was Toadstool's Garden, but he was in fact in Wario's Woods and gets stuck in it. Then, Wario's monsters are invading the Mushroom Kingdom. Wanda, and Birdo (all misfit characters at the time) set out to defeat the monsters. The game plays similarly to Tetris. Toad is the main hero, and Birdo and Wanda would help Toad by giving him encouragement and bombs to destroy the monsters (respectively). If Toad took too long to complete a level, the rascal Wario would grab Birdo and replace Wanda with a Pidgit. The two would then throw more monsters at Toad. Many enemies unique to this game appear, most notably the Evil Ceiling.

Satellaview Versions
Wario's Woods was released on the Satellaview in two different versions. These versions are exclusive to the Satellaview.

The first version was called ワリオの森 爆笑バージョン (Wario's Woods Burst Of Laughter Version). In this one many of the character graphics were replaced with caricatures of Japanese Celebrities.

The second version was called ワリオの森 再び (Wario's Woods Again) This version lacks the edited graphics, making it more similar to the standard release. However, there are also other removals, such as the round-game-style Single Player mode and Story Mode Dialog.
