Word Up 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.

Gameplay[edit]

There is a ship the player controls at the bottom of the screen and several panels with letters on them at the top. Some of these panels are blinking and have a question mark on them. The player must move the ship under these and fire, flipping them over and completing the message. Moving the ship left or right offscreen makes the ship reappear on the opposite side.

  • 1st level difficulty: There is one box to shoot.
  • 2nd level difficulty: There are two boxes to shoot.
  • 3rd level difficulty: There are three boxes to shoot.

Possible messages include:

  • <player's name> (Mega Microgame$!, spaces become exclamation marks)
