Gameplay

WarioWare: Twisted!

The player controls a robot attacking with a two-fingers hand. The game's purpose is to destroy the noses getting in the player's way and reach a big face with two eyes and a nose. The nose starts attacking him. To defeat him, the player has to block his two nostrils using the hands. The nose explodes and makes the face reveal itself as a bigger nose that attacks with mini-noses. The robot transforms into a two-handed one. To defeat this one, the player has to hit its nostrils. After several shots, the nose explodes.

• 1st level difficulty: There is a small amount of mini-noses, the wind coming out of the mini-boss isn't strong and it takes a small amount of shots to defeat the big nose.
• 2nd level difficulty: There are more mini-noses, the wind coming out of the mini-boss is stronger and it takes more shots to defeat the big nose.
• 3rd level difficulty: There is a big amount of mini-noses, the wind coming out of the mini-boss is strong and it takes a big amount of shots to defeat the big nose.

Trivia

• The fruits that the robot eats (bananas, cherries and a peach) are the same weapons the player later uses in Boot Camp, a boss stage in WarioWare: Smooth Moves. They are also used in the same order across all three difficulty levels.
