Pop-Up Patrol is one of the microgames in Dr. Crygor's High Tech level in WarioWare: Get It Together!

Gameplay

The object of this microgame is to clear all of the pop-ups from a screen by attacking them. Some of the pop-ups reference other microgames, such as Bubble Count, Ice-Cream Lean, Mouths to Feed, and Hot-Air Heroics. If the player wins, the cursor moves and clicks on the heart in the blog.

  • Level 1: One pop-up appears.
  • Level 2: Two pop-ups appear. One must be cleared for the other to show up.
  • Level 3: Three pop-ups appear. They either show up one at a time or layered in a single spot.

If two players are utilized for this microgame, some factors change. The player who removes more pop-ups gets a point for effort.

  • Level 1: Three stationary pop-ups appear at once.
  • Level 2: Three pop-ups appear one at a time or five pop-ups appear at once, layered in two spots.
  • Level 3: Five pop-ups appear. They either show up rapidly or layered in a single spot.
