WarioWare: Twisted!

200490/100
PuzzleArcade
Twisted! distills the frantic energy of WarioWare into a handheld package, ditching button presses for gyroscopic controls. The core gameplay loop, a series of microgames completed in mere seconds, is elevated by the unique twist: physically rotating the Game Boy Advance. This simple input method keeps players on their toes, transforming each challenge into a physical and mental test. The sheer variety of the microgames, combined with the unpredictable nature of the rotation mechanic, makes for a compulsively replayable experience.

About WarioWare: Twisted!

Details
After accidentally discovering spin technology, Wario reassembles the developers at WarioWare, Inc. to make a new set of wild minigames. WarioWare: Twisted! maintains the fast-paced style of gameplay from the original WarioWare and introduces a new gyro sensor that lets you control the gameplay by rotating the Game Boy Advance SP left and right. The new controls play into more than 200 minigames. Play through them all to unlock souvenirs, such as bonus games, figurines, and instruments.
