Golden Passage
Template:Levelbox Golden Passage is the last level before the final boss, Golden Diva in the Game Boy Advance game, Wario Land 4. It is found in the Golden Pyramid. This level is very different and is made far more challenging than the others, because at the beginning, Wario is forced to land on the Frog Switch upon entering the level (it is placed towards the end on every other level). The Frog Switch limits the time that the player can spend in the level. So in this case, with the Frog Switch being at the beginning of the level, the player must obtain the Keyzer, along with all four Diamond Pieces within a strict time limit in order to progress to the next level.
The time given to complete the level varies on the game mode.
- On Normal mode, the time given is 9:30 minutes.
- On Hard mode, the time given is 6:00 minutes.
- On Super Hard mode (unlockable), the time given is 3:30 minutes.
As with the Hall of Hieroglyphs, there is no CD to collect in this level.
Trivia
- The actual soundtrack of Golden Passage is unhearable, since Wario is not given a chance to listen to it. The usual fast-paced Frog Switch music will play thoughout the whole level. However, the hidden, unheard soundtrack does exist, and can only be heard by avoiding landing on the Frog Switch, which can not be done during normal gameplay; only by using an Action Replay or another hacking device. The unused soundtrack can be heard below.
