==Overview==
''WarioWare: Move It!'' is, like other installments in the ''WarioWare'' series, a party game consisting of various microgames with distinct art-styles. Being a successor to ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', its gameplay utilizes motion controls, with the Joy-Con (referred to in-game as the [[Form Stones]]) as controllers. Unlike previous installments in the series, which primarily take place in [[Diamond City]], the game mostly takes place on a new tropical location, named [[Caresaway Island]].<ref name=JPSite2>[https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/article/77f204fe-dadd-48c0-85f7-fb1b0b35091e 今度の舞台は、バリオモロ島!? 『超おどる メイド イン ワリオ』の最新映像をご紹介。].

In the game, the story mode can be played either single- or multiplayer. Its level selection screen is reminiscent of ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'' and ''WarioWare: Get It Together!''; each level is represented by one to three character heads, while the remix stages are represented by jeepneys that hold select characters. Story multiplayer returns from ''WarioWare: Get It Together!'' with slight differences. When playing in multiplayer, players take turns playing single-player microgames, and if one player fails, the second player can preserve the life at stake in a tag-in challenge by playing the same microgame. If the second player fails the tag-in, the life is lost. Occasionally, the players will play a two-player microgame simultaneously and must complete the microgame together.<ref name=VCGameplay> Video Chums. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHqvczAJb7k].

|'''Story:''' When the cast finally arrives at the island, they are welcomed by a tourist, who gives them all Form Stones. Wario, unimpressed, throws them away, causing a chain of events, leading to an elephant sending him flying into a shrine at Perspiration Peak Volcano, where he is chased by its inhabitants for trespassing.

Later, Wario escapes the inhabitants of the temple, but falls off a cliff. He lands on the same parrot he accidentally hit with the Form Stones earlier. Wario is delighted at his luck, and takes a liking to the Form Stones. He laughs as the parrot carries him off.

Dr. Crygor uses his latest invention, the Time Obliterator 5.0, to travel back in time to the Stone Age to see how the painting was made. There, the trio meet the actual creature and a caveman who is in need of new ideas for what to draw. The caveman asks the trio to make poses as inspiration for his art.
|'''Story:''' While observing some cave paintings in Underarm Jungle, Dr. Crygor, Penny and Mike find a painting of a strange creature. Since none of them can figure out what the creature is, Dr. Crygor uses his latest invention, the [[Time Obliterator 5.0]], to travel back in time to the Stone Age to see how the painting was made. There, the trio meet the actual creature and an ancient Caresawayan who is in need of new ideas for what to draw. After being struck by creative inspiration after meeting the colorful trio, the Caresawayan asks the trio to make poses as inspiration for his art.


The trio starts to get tired until the caveman draws them on the wall, which they are impressed at. Later on, Wario walks by the cave paintings and notices paintings of Dr. Crygor, Penny, and Mike, much to his confusion.
