Pink area
- “In each level, hop through a pipe to reach a pink-tinted area with valuables. Figuring out how to reach said valuables can be quite the challenge.”
- —Official North American Wario Land 4 website
Pink areas[1] are found in Wario Land 4. They are rooms where Wario can collect a Diamond, a Full Health Item or a combination of around 1,000 points, if the player solves a puzzle before-hand. Pink areas are found in purple pipes, with two in each level (not including the Entry Passage and the Golden Passage, while Pinball Zone has three). The puzzles vary in difficulty, depending on how far Wario has progressed in the game. For each puzzle, the player must work out a way to obtain the reward using a combination of moves and game mechanics.
Solving these rooms is optional and not necessary to complete the main game, but rather if the player wants to gain extra points or replenish their Heart Meter. A specific soundtrack plays every time Wario enters a pink area. The Sound Room record "Soft Shell" is a remix of the pink area soundtrack.
