There are some weird, messed up games out there if you look hard enough, lads. This is one of the weirdest of them all. Wario Ware, like all of Wario's other games (and I do mean all of them), is about Wario making money. This attempt, however, is the most off-the-wall one ever made. Now read all the little subcategories.
Gameplay
The gameplay in this game is frantic and fast-paced. Instead of playing through one game, you play through hundreds of microgames that last only a few seconds apiece. Now you may be all WTF? and stuff right about now, but there's more. When a game starts, the game gives you one-word instructions and you have to figure out how to win and win within the 2 seconds or so you have to complete that game. As you play through more, the rate at which things go speeds up mucho. You keep going until the game is too fast for you and you lose. Also, the first time you play each round of games, you finish with a "boss game," which is a slightly more complex microgame. And all this is so addictive... SCORE: 13/15
Graphics
They're fine. The games use a bunch of various artistic styles which adds to the immense variety in this game. And you can see what you're doing. SCORE: 5/5
Story
The story is just a typical Wario thing. However, the fact that he's making video games and selling them is just cool. SCORE: 7/10
Replay Value
This game is maddeningly addictive. Although you can beat it in a few hours, the sheer fun of this game makes you want to keep on playing. Also, it contains full versions of some classics. Dr. Wario, anyone? SCORE: 10/10
Additional Crap and Tilt
Besides all that, the game comes with a rather interesting instruction booklet. Yay for stickers! Also, as mentioned above, it contains full versions of some old-school games we know and love. This game r0x0rz. SCORE: 8/10
Final Verdict
Well, this game is neato dorito. One of those "must-have" games. GET IT, MOFO.
FINAL SCORE: 43/50
