![]() All the microgames are divided into categories, from sports, to fantasy, to Nintendo, and each is paired with a zany character to represent it. However, within the context of the game’s overall world and concept, there is a certain magic to WarioWare Gold that constantly keeps things fresh. Wrapping your mind around microgame after microgame is hectic fun, but that can become tiresome when taken on its own. However, it isn’t by merit of the gameplay alone that WarioWare Gold succeeds, but by the way microgames are presented to you. Things can become even more mind-twisting when the game begins to layer its three control styles (mash, touch, and twist) on top of each other, forcing you to bounce between the d-pad, the stylus, and the gyroscope to continue pushing for a high score. You’ll have to be able to adapt to a new task on the fly, which can be difficult, but incredibly rewarding when you enter a rhythm of success after success. As you progress through each microgame, the pace will get faster, and your reflexes will have to speed up with it. The challenge of WarioWare doesn’t come from any sort of mechanical complexity, but instead from the act of surviving the gauntlet itself. In a mere handful of seconds, you’ll be asked to complete a rather straightforward task, before being immediately thrust into the next one. ![]() ![]() WarioWare is a series built on the microgame, essentially, a mini, minigame. It is through this creative spirit that WarioWare Gold manages to be not only my favorite Nintendo game of 2018 so far, but a must-have for all 3DS owners. To call this game creative would be a supreme understatement WarioWare is an amalgamation of very disparate ideas that somehow meld together into a wild experience unlike much else available. Last year, Metroid: Samus Returns was the golden ticket, but here in 2018, that game is undoubtedly WarioWare Gold. Just when I think I can retire my 3DS, Nintendo releases another gem for the system.
