Nightmare Fuel is one of the microgames in Dribble & Spitz's Fantasy level in WarioWare: Get It Together!. It is most likely named after a term used to refer to works of fiction or scenes that can disturb and/or frighten the audience, or the trope first named in the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode "Santa Claus".

Gameplay

The object of this microgame is to erase the monster in a sleeping dog's nightmare by attacking it. When the monster is erased, a crescent moon appears in the sky, and the dog's expression changes to one of joy.

  • Level 1: The player must clear away a thin monster.
  • Level 2: The player must clear away a wider monster.
  • Level 3: The player must clear away two monsters.

If two players are utilized for this microgame, there will always be one monster, but they are double the width of the nightmare in each level of the single-player variant. If the players win, the player that erases more of the monster receives an effort point.
