'''Gamer''' is [[9-Volt]] and [[18-Volt]]'s [[minigame]] in ''[[Game & Wario]]''. The minigame is played using {{button|wiiu|GamePad}}'s buttons. Gamer returns in ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'' as a stage in Challenge Mode, this time under the name '''Sneaky Gamer'''; the [[microgame]] [[Mole (microgame)|Mole]] also reappears in the game.


A [[stage]] based on the minigame, also called [[Gamer (stage)|Gamer]], makes an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', featuring [[5-Volt]] as a stage hazard.
'''Gamer''' is [[9-Volt]] and [[18-Volt]]'s [[minigame]] in ''[[Game & Wario]]'', for [[Wii U]]. The game is played using the {{button|wiiu|GamePad}}'s buttons.


==Story==
==Story==
9-Volt and 18-Volt play a game on their new console, competing to find out who gets the high score in the game. 9-Volt wins and beats 18-Volt's score, causing the latter to throw a tantrum while the former celebrates, but then 5-Volt takes the console from the boys and tells them to do their homework. After the boys do so, 5-Volt gives them the console back, but they are surprised to discover that 5-Volt had beaten both of their scores by a wide margin.
Playing with their new console, 9-Volt and 18-Volt compete to find out who gets the high score in the game and 9-Volt wins. [[5-Volt]] gets the console from them and order them to do their homework. After some time, 9-Volt and 18-Volt are done and get eager to play again. 5-Volt gives the console back, revealing she had beaten her son's score, making him shocked.

There are two modes in the minigame. Both involve the characters playing a modified version of ''{{wp|Balloon Fight}}'' containing microgames, called ''Balloon Fighter''.
There are two modes in the minigame. Both involve the characters playing a modified version of ''[[wikipedia:Balloon Fight|Balloon Fight]]'' containing [[microgame]]s, called ''Balloon Fighter''.


===9-Volt===
==9-Volt==
[[File:5VoltGamergameplay.png|thumb|left|9-Volt playing on his console]]
In this mode, the player must help 9-Volt to win microgames and avoid letting [[5-Volt]] know that he is playing during his bedtime. She will constantly look into his bedroom through his door to see if he is sleeping, forcing the player to hide and pause the game. A time bar is displayed to show the amount of time 9-Volt could stay awake without playing it. The game ends if the player fails to hide it from 5-Volt, if the time 9-Volt can stay awake runs out, or if they lose all chance balloons. 5-Volt also may look through the window, or pop out from the TV.  If the player receives at least 1000 points in level 1, 2, or 3 they will achieve Gamer status.  If they score at least 30 points in the Endless level, they will also achieve Gamer status.
In this mode, the player must help 9-Volt win enough microgames to beat 5-Volt's high score and avoid letting 5-Volt discover that he is playing past his bedtime. She constantly looks into his bedroom to see if he is sleeping, forcing the player to hide and pause the game. The Wakey Meter displays the amount of time 9-Volt can stay awake;<ref>"If 9-Volt pretends to sleep when 5-Volt's not around, you'll drain your Wakey Meter. When the Wakey Meter reaches 0, 9-Volt falls asleep for real, and you lose the game!" – ''WarioWare Gold'' instructions for Sneaky Gamer</ref> hiding with good timing (indicated by "Great!!") prevents any meter loss, and in Endless Mode, doing so restores a small portion (+3) of the meter. The [[Game Over|game ends]] if the player fails to hide their game from 5-Volt, the Wakey Meter runs out, or they lose all lives (indicated by chance balloons).
===Levels===
*'''Level 1:''' There are no distractions except a cat that will open the door instead of 5-Volt.
*'''Level 2:''' There are a few more distractions such as an old man with a wig that will walk by 9-Volt's window.  The television will also turn on to many different programs eventually changing to a channel where 5-Volt comes out to try and catch 9-Volt. 5-Volt may also run to 9-Volt's window and break it open.
*'''Level 3:''' In this level, it contains all the distractions that were in Level 2, along with a few additional scenarios to look out for.  First, when the old man walks by 9-Volt's window, he may meet 5-Volt who will walk to 9-Volt's window and open it. 5-Volt may also stay in 9-Volt's room and watch television shows briefly, looking back at 9-Volt a few times or rush over to his bed to attempt catching him in the act.
*'''Endless:''' This level is at the same difficulty as Level 3 except now it will continue until the player loses all of their chance balloons, 5-Volt sees 9-Volt, or 9-Volt falls asleep.


[[File:GAME OVER SLEEP.png|thumb|The Game Over screen, if 9-Volt falls asleep]]
==18-Volt==
5-Volt opens the door and looks into the room, which is signaled by the sound of her footsteps and the door handle jiggling. She may also walk by the window and open the second half that she stops by (signaled by a scare chord), or even pop out from the TV, signaled by the static display of it. If the player receives at least 1,000 [[point]]s on Level 1, 2, or 3, they achieve Gamer status; if they score at least 30 points in the Endless level, they also achieve Gamer status. Achieving Gamer status rewards the player with a coin for the [[Cluck-A-Pop]].
In this mode, 18-Volt is playing the console. This mode is very similar to ''[[WarioWare]]'' games, without specific time and with three difficulty levels for microgames, only ending when the player loses all four chance balloons.
===Levels===
*'''Normal:''' If the player scores 40 points or more, they will achieve Gamer status.
*'''Ultra Speed:''' From the beginning, the games go very fast.  If the player scores 20 points or more, they will achieve Gamer status.
*'''Hardcore:''' At the start, the player begins with one chance balloon left and all microgames are set to their hardest difficulty.  If the player scores 10 points or more, they will achieve Gamer status.

====Levels====
----
*'''Level 1:''' There are only a few distractions.
'''Mole'''
**A cat quickly opens the door instead of 5-Volt; in Sneaky Gamer, [[Fronk]] may do so as well.
[[File:G&W-Freckles.png|thumb|150px]]
**5-Volt may hum the [[Underground Theme]] or the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and then suddenly open the door.

**'''3rd level difficulty:''' The person has beady eyes. You may be asked to count the eyes.
**The door opens just a bit by itself.
{{br}}
*'''Level 2:''' 5-Volt gains a few more techniques, and more distractions are added.
----
**An old man with a wig walks by 9-Volt's window and opens it; the wig is loose and falls off beforehand.  
'''Spotlight'''
**5-Volt may open the door three times in a row, with the last time possibly being the cat instead.
[[File:G&W-Star.png|thumb|150px]]
**5-Volt can also fake the player out by opening the window to check 9-Volt and walking offscreen past the window, then walking back and opening it again.
*A microgame challenging the player to keep a star celebrity under the spotlight until the game ends.
**The television turns on and cycles through up to three different programs, with 5-Volt possibly coming out from the last of them to try to catch 9-Volt.
**'''1st level difficulty:''' The star has no legs.
**The television turns on and shows some {{wp|SMPTE color bars}} for a brief time, then turns off.
**'''2nd level difficulty:''' The star has medium-length legs.
**5-Volt either walks near 9-Volt's window like normal or else walks faster—only to suddenly break through it, giving the player less time to hide.
**'''3rd level difficulty:''' The star has long legs.
**5-Volt may walk by the window and slowly sink down—then, either she comes up and opens the window, or a pair of upside-down legs appears and moves away.
{{br}}
*'''Level 3:''' There are many more scenarios to look out for.
----
**When 5-Volt walks by 9-Volt's window, she may bump into the wig-wearing old man, who then opens the window (or vice versa).
'''Loose Tooth'''
**5-Volt can jump out of the television and stay in 9-Volt's room after certain attempts to catch him; a tense score plays when she is keeping her eyes on him. She may sit down and watch television for a brief period of time, then turn off the television, look back at 9-Volt, and walk to the door, with the cat opening the door for her. Should the television flip to a {{wp|SMPTE color bars|test pattern}}, she becomes restless and rushes over to his bed, trying to catch him in the act. Eventually, she runs back to her initial spot to watch television for a little while longer; once she turns it off, she watches 9-Volt intently as she leaves, with the cat opening the door for her.
[[File:G&W-Teeth.png|thumb|150px]]
**In Sneaky Gamer, [[Mr. Sparkles]] can appear on the television screen.
*A microgame involving a creature that must stay on teeth platforms, though four out of five will rot and disappear.

**'''1st level difficulty:''' The teeth are aligned diagonally and they rot slowly.
**In Sneaky Gamer, 5-Volt's handprints may also appear at the window before she opens it, hanging upside down, in an attempt to catch 9-Volt awake.
**'''2nd level difficulty:''' The teeth are aligned horizontally and they rot faster.
*'''Endless:''' This level is at the same difficulty as Level 3 and uses the same set of 5-Volt appearances and distractions, along with several new ones; the level continues until the game ends under any condition.
**'''3rd level difficulty:''' The teeth are not aligned and some rot at the same time.
**After the television switches through two channels, a cat may pop out of the television before running back in.
{{br}}
**5-Volt may change her walking speed while going by the window outside, including when she doubles back to open it.
----
**5-Volt often opens the window multiple times in the same pass, accompanied by a scare chord when she runs to the window; like with the door, the last time it is opened, the player may see the wig-wearing old man instead.
'''Matryoshka'''
**After 5-Volt moves from the television and tries to catch 9-Volt on his bed, she may fall asleep; the player can see a snot bubble appear when she does, though she can wake up suddenly. Once awake, she may jump outside through the window; in Sneaky Gamer, she instead runs back to her initial sitting spot, with her movement pattern proceeding as usual.
[[File:G&W-Dolls.png|thumb|150px]]
**In Sneaky Gamer, 5-Volt may slowly open the door to catch 9-Volt.
*A microgame where the player must take all the [[wikipedia:Matryoshka doll|matryoshka doll]]-like people out of the larger ones. Sometimes, You cannot interact at all or a bomb inside of the [[wikipedia:Matryoshka doll|matryoshka doll]] will explode.
**In Sneaky Gamer, a scare chord may play rarely, followed by 5-Volt jumping into the room through the window; she then uses the same set of techniques to catch 9-Volt as when she jumps out of the television.
**'''1st level difficulty:''' The player must take the dolls out of each other normally.
**A Cluck-A-Pop coin may drop onto the console and appear in a microgame, and the player can claim the coin by tapping it.

===18-Volt===
In this mode, 18-Volt is playing the console. This mode is very similar to other ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' games, with three difficulty levels for microgames, and ends only when the player loses all four chance balloons. After the player beats the boss microgame, various intermission cutscenes play. The time of day also progresses. The cutscenes include:
*18-Volt eating a handful of popcorn (first time).
*18-Volt watching a running person pass by (second time).
*An automobile driving by (day and evening only).
*A person walking with four cats following them (night only).
There is a rare chance that 5-Volt appears from behind a bush to give the player a scare; after a few seconds, she walks away. In the next intermission, she walks in front of her home.<ref>arronmunroe (August 14, 2018). [https://youtu.be/MzL1Jk0RdWY?t=1014 Game & Wario: Gamer: 9-Volt and 18-Volt All Stages 60fps]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved January 16, 2021.</ref>
====Levels====
*'''Normal:''' If the player scores 40 points or more, they achieve Gamer status.
*'''Ultra Speed:''' From the beginning, the games go very fast. If the player scores 20 points or more, they achieve Gamer status.
*'''Hardcore:''' At the start, the player begins with only one chance balloon and all microgames are set to their hardest difficulty. If the player scores 10 points or more, they achieve Gamer status.
==Rewards==
These scores are based on Levels 1–3 only. Scores for other modes are based on microgames encountered. Only microgames completed count; a microgame interrupted partway by a Game Over does not count.
*Each point remaining on Wakey Meter: 10 points
*Lives remaining: 100 points
Thus, the highest possible score is 1,400 (with four lives remaining and a full Wakey Meter), while the lowest is 110 (one life remaining and a nearly empty meter).
==Microgames==
===''Game & Wario''===
Each of these microgames can be played individually without facing any threats from 5-Volt by obtaining them from the [[Cluck-A-Pop]] machine. They are represented by orange capsules and take up spots 59–80 in the capsule collection. Two microgames, [[Gold Digger]] and [[Sole Man]], return from previous ''WarioWare'' games.
All microgames that support {{button|wiiu|pad}} also support the {{button|wiiu|leftstick}} stick.
