The intermission stage of the Variety Towers are generally the same, consisting of the inside of an elevator with the animal (or its face) on the doors, which open to reveal the microgame. If the player wins, the animal shows a happy emotion. If the player loses, the animal is angry or dazed, and a life is lost.

The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Thrill Ride
Thrill Ride as it appears in WarioWare: Get It Together!

The Variety Towers are a group of sidemodes found in the WarioWare series. They consist of three or four towers, each proposing a challenge to the player. They can be unlocked after beating the main mode or by completing a previous tower with a certain score. Most of these towers are provided to the player as an additional challenge, though in WarioWare: Get It Together!, they are visited during the story when Wario and his crew are looking for Red, Master Mantis and Lulu. In WarioWare: Move It!, the backgrounds are temples, instead of towers.

Most games featuring the Variety Towers have a motif around an animal:

The intermission stage of the Variety Towers are generally the same, consisting of the inside of an elevator with the animal (or its face) on the doors, which open to reveal the microgame. If the player wins, the animal shows a happy emotion. If the player loses, the animal is angry or dazed, and a life is lost.

Gameplay[edit]

All Mixed Up[edit]

All Mixed Up (known as Easy in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, Skyscraper in WarioWare: Twisted!, and Monster Megamix in WarioWare: Touched!) is the first Variety Tower the player encounters. In this tower, the player has to play a series of microgames, increasing in speed and difficulty, like in the main game. While regular microgames appear, boss microgames do not, so it is impossible to earn lives. WarioWare: Smooth Moves is an exception; in this version, a boss microgame appears every 100 games. As with the other towers in Gold, the color changes depending on the microgame that is coming up: yellow for Mash, blue for Twist, and red for Touch. In the Ultra mode where commands are hidden, the colors are always black and gray with the outlines being white.

Super Hard[edit]

Super Hard (known as Hard in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!, Tower in WarioWare: Twisted!, and Gnarly Mix in WarioWare: Touched!) is one of the Variety Towers the player plays. Depending on the game, it can be the second, third, or final tower faced. In this tower, the microgames do not increase in difficulty. However, the game starts at a very fast speed, giving the player very little time to react to and complete the microgames. Prior to WarioWare: Touched!, the microgames' music did not rise in pitch while they were sped up.

Thrill Ride[edit]

Thrill Ride (known as Thrilling in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!, Mansion in WarioWare: Twisted!, Hardcore Mix in WarioWare: Touched!, and Sudden Death in WarioWare: Smooth Moves) is one of the Variety Towers the player faces. Depending on the game, it can be the second, third, or final tower unlocked. In this tower, the game does not increase in speed. However, the microgames are all on their third difficulty level (second difficulty level in WarioWare: Touched!) and the player only has one life, making any mistake an instant Game Over. In WarioWare Gold, the microgames are also played at a slightly increased speed.

Total Boss[edit]

Total Boss is a Variety Tower that only appears in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, unlocked at the same time as All Mixed Up. All boss microgames appear in this tower, cycling in order, with each one being required to complete in order to challenge the next one. Despite boss microgames appearing, players do not earn lives upon completing them. After completing every boss microgame, the level goes up. This tower is pink.

Thrilling[edit]

Thrilling is a Variety Tower that only appears in WarioWare: Smooth Moves. In this tower, Form cards, a regular presence in the game, are not shown before the microgame begins. The description for the tower prompts the player to start each microgame in the Remote Control Form. Microgames start at Level 2 and increase in speed every 10 microgames. This tower is green.
