~ 3DS Homebrew Journey - Game 7 ~

I could never wrap my head around what type of game WarioWare was, but its vast colourful cast reeled me in and gave me a chance to see what all the fuss was all about.

And after having completed both WarioWare Gold (2018) and WarioWare: Touched! (2004) I am in love. As the game’s name suggests, is it through and through a “GOLD”en experience.

I’d like to compare WarioWare to a great buffet, with all its microgames being different dishes. The games can be divided into categories, yes, but each microgame is distinct enough to be its own dish with its own flavour and texture despite sharing similarities with games within the same category. Because of the multitude of microgames there’s in store, you may think that they look much alike, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Each 5 or so seconds game adds a lot of its own quirkiness to this already fuckfest of quirkinesses.

The addition of voice acting may sound trivial to some, but I think it adds a lot to this already colourful cast.

I will without a doubt play any WarioWare I come across in the future, as long as I can get my hands on the required system and game. Can’t wait!
