Ice Climber is one of 9-Volt's games in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and returns as one of 5-Volt's microgames in WarioWare Gold. It is based on the bonus stage of the NES game also called Ice Climber.

Gameplay[edit]

In this microgame, the player controls Popo, one of the Ice Climbers. The player has to try and grab onto the condor flying overhead.

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$![edit]

  • 1st level difficulty: Popo does not need to move around to grab onto the condor.
  • 2nd level difficulty: Popo may have to move to another platform to grab onto the condor.
  • 3rd level difficulty: Popo starts at the bottom platform and he has to get on a higher platform to grab the condor.

WarioWare Gold[edit]

The timer is twice as long, and the field of view is larger.

  • 1st level difficulty: Popo does not need to move around to grab onto the condor.
  • 2nd level difficulty: Popo starts on a lower platform and he has to get on a higher platform to grab the condor.
  • 3rd level difficulty: Popo must utilize the moving clouds to grab the eggplant instead of a condor.

In-game timer[edit]

In addition to the regular timer on the bottom, there is also a timer in the upper left within the microgame based on the bonus stage timer in the original Ice Climber game.

In Mega Microgame$! the timer counts down at a set speed regardless of the microgame's speed, so as the microgame speeds up, the amount of time on that timer decreases. For instance, at speed 1 the timer starts at approximately 02.8, whereas at speed 2 it starts at 02.4.

In Gold the timer almost always starts at approximately 08.0, with 2 beats equaling 1.0 on the timer. In the WarioWatch challenge the timer starts at approximately 10.0, partially due to all non-boss microgames in WarioWatch having a 28-beat time limit.
