Mars Jars is one of Dribble & Spitz's microgames in both the Sci-Fi folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and the Fantasy level of the Mash League in WarioWare Gold. Its name is likely a pun on "Mars bars."

Gameplay[edit]

There is a stick man (the male orange member of the Astronaut Family in Gold) on Mars, who has one or more children (blue members of the Astronaut Family in Gold) with them. The number of children present depends on the difficulty. Above them, there is a large glass cup moving back and forth. It loosely tracks the player character. Near the end of the microgame, the cup pops up a little then drops straight down to capture the people. The player controls the man with the +Control Pad left or right, the children trail behind him. Both the man and the children must avoid being caught inside the glass cup when it lands, as any of them being captured causes the microgame to end in failure. After landing, the cup is inert and can be walked into.

  • 1st level difficulty: There is one child.
  • 2nd level difficulty: There are two children.
  • 3rd level difficulty: There are three children.
