On the Ropes is a microgame in WarioWare: Smooth Moves. It is only in Wario's stage. The name comes from the idiom "on the ropes," which describes an opponent who is about to be defeated.

Gameplay[edit]

The player controls the rope in a game of jump rope with three little Warios. To win the microgame, it is necessary to swing the rope so the jumping little Wario can jump over the rope.

  • 1st level difficulty: The player swings one person. If done correctly, the single person cheers with his friends.
  • 2nd level difficulty: The player swings two people. If done correctly, the last person to go runs and knocks the other two people down.
  • 3rd level difficulty: The player swings three people. If done correctly, the last person runs again, but the two people jump over him.
