List of WarioWare: Twisted! microgames
The following is a list of microgames in WarioWare: Twisted!, listed in the order they appear in the Spindex. There are a total of 223 microgames, tied with WarioWare: Move It! as the second-most in the entire series after WarioWare Gold.
A microgame with a bold font has a chance to appear during high score runs, but does not appear in story mode.
Mini Spin[edit]
These microgames are hosted by Mona and require small moves. The intermission stage consists of a TV broadcast of Sal Out performing the song "Mona Pizza" being viewed by the customers who ordered the pizza, who switch channels between a microgame and the performance, with the channel indicator acting as a score counter. The number of lives is indicated by pizzas. If the player wins, the crowd cheers. If the player loses, Sal Out trips. When the player loses all their lives, the TV turns static. This is the only stage in the game without the "Faster!", "Boss Stage", "Game Over", and stage clear jingles. Only the tempo increases after the "Faster!" prompt, similar to Kat & Ana's stage in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!

Time Warp[edit]
These microgames are hosted by Orbulon and are twice as long as other microgames. The intermission stage consists of Orbulon attempting to type in a password to activate the space warp. The number of lives is indicated by hearts. The player's score is shown on the display screen on the top-left. If the player wins, a character is typed in (but resets whenever the speed increases). If the player loses, Orbulon fails to type in a character. When the player defeats the boss, the password is accepted. When the player loses all their lives, Orbulon receives a password error. A microgame with an italic font lasts twice as long.

These microgames are found in 9-Volt & 18-Volt's stage, and are based on classic NES games. The intermission stage consists of a command center inside of a Nintendo Entertainment System (a Famicom on the Japanese version).

If the player wins, the Warios give a thumbs-up. If the player loses, one of the Warios leaves.
