The vortex and switch
The Frog Switch in the Hall of Hieroglyphs.

A Frog Switch is an object that appears in the game Wario Land 4. A Frog Switch appears at the end of every level in the game. When Wario jumps on a Frog Switch, the switch will open up to reveal a ticking time bomb, and any solid Frog Switch Blocks will turn transparent, and vice-versa. Wario will then only have a certain amount of time to escape the level by returning to the Vortex at the beginning of the stage. If Wario can't escape before the bomb goes off, Wario will lose all the coins he earned in that level and will be thrown back to the main map, making the player start the level all over again. The Switch also appears before the level on the main map. Wario would have to hit that one to open the Vortex and enter the level. The times given by the Frog Switches vary on the game mode. A complete list of times can be seen in the section below. Frog Switches resemble a blue Frog on top of a red base that has a green and yellow trim. When the Frog Switch is hit, Wario shouts "Hurry up!" to the player, and an intense tune begins to play, which induces the player to run fast back to the beginning of the level. In the level Fiery Cavern, the Frog Switch turns the level into ice. In the Hotel Horror, there are two doors which have a frog sign on it. These doors will only open when the Frog Switch is hit.

The Frog Switch made a cameo appearance in Densetsu no Stafy 3, where Starfy and Wario must trek through the Undersea Ruins. A Frog Switch is found in the middle of the level, opening up a new area.
