Rock Candy is one of the microgames in Ashley's Food level in WarioWare: Get It Together! Its name is a reference to rock candy, a confection composed of large sugar crystals.
Gameplay[edit]
The object of this microgame is to break all the rocks on the plate, either by attacking them or dropping them on the ground, leaving only the candy for the boy to eat. If only the candy is left on the plate, the boy will lick the candy and the game is won. If the candy is broken or dropped to the ground, the boy is left disappointed and the game is lost.
- Level 1: There are three rocks, and the plate is large. The plate has lips to prevent the candy from rolling off.
- Level 2: There are either three or four rocks, and the plate is medium-sized without lips.
- Level 3: There are four rocks, and the plate is very small without lips.
If two players are utilized for this microgame, there are always five rocks, and none of the plates have lips. If the players win, the player that breaks more rocks receives an effort point. The player that breaks the candy loses an effort point.
- Level 1: The candy is stacked above the rocks.
- Level 2: The candy and rocks are arranged in a circle, or the rocks are arranged in a "V" shape with the candy in the center of the rocks.
- Level 3: The boy holds two small plates, with the rocks and candy stacked between them, requiring careful movement of the candy.
Mission[edit]
- Candy Keep-Away: The player has to break all of the rocks within half of the time limit and not let the boy lick the candy by keeping it moving or off the plate without breaking it for the remainder of the microgame.

- Mona, Penny, and Pyoro are a below-average fit as Mona's boomerang, Penny's Jet Tank One, and Pyoro's tongue require careful movement of the candy.
- Characters with constant controls are a poor fit as each of their attacks may accidentally demolish the candy.
