Template:Minigame-infobox Chicken Pinch is a microgame in the Strange folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!. It reappears as part of Mona's set in WarioWare Gold.

Gameplay

There is a large set of tongs floating above the ground in the middle of the screen. The player can press the A Button button to pinch with it. A chicken will run along the line, stopping and jumping when it reaches under the tongs, and the player must catch it by pinching with good timing. If the chicken is grabbed while doing a backflip, it will be held by the legs, instead of the whole body.

  • 1st level difficulty: The chicken jumps twice, then does a backflip.
  • 2nd level difficulty: The chicken waits for one beat, jumps once, then does a backflip.
  • 3rd level difficulty: The chicken waits for three beats, then does a backflip. In WarioWare Gold, there is a possible chance that three chicken bugs appear and one of them jumps high enough to be caught.

In WarioWare Gold, the chicken bugs will randomly have a single hair on their heads. Pinching the hair counts as a failure, as the chicken bug will instantly flee.
