Gameplay

The player controls a caped character holding a giant cork, and their objective is to seal a giant's mouth with it. To do so, the player must walk across the giant's hand all the way to his face, while he blows against them and obstacles try to take them down, making the player lose if they touch them.

  • 1st level difficulty: Spiked balls dropping from the sky serve as obstacles. Sometimes, the "baby face" icon from Mario Paint and WarioWare: D.I.Y. falls from the sky, more quickly and sudden than the spiked balls, which only replaces the player's head if it hits. The giant blows air without stopping. If the player loses, they fall through a shoji door and it closes.
  • 2nd level difficulty: The obstacles are fish that jump over the hand to catch worms above the player's head. The giant may sometimes stop blowing air and inhale, making the player walk more quickly, but may throw them off and trick them into walking into an obstacle if not careful. If the player loses, they fall into a soup bowl.
  • 3rd level difficulty: Both spiked balls and fish are obstacles. The giant's hand is inclined downwards, and he inhales more often than in Level 2. If the player loses, they fall into a frog's mouth and it eats them.
