''Wario World'' is a 3D | ''Wario World'' is a 3D platformer. Each level has three objectives: beat the boss, collect all eight of the [[Gold Statue]] parts and get all eight [[treasure (Wario franchise)|treasure]]s back. After completing both levels in a world, the boss fight of that world will open. When the world boss is beaten, the next world opens. Wario can use several moves to defeat his enemies in various ways, such as spinning them around or slamming their head into the ground. | ||
Each time the player collects all treasures in a world, a [[microgame]] from ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'' is unlocked. These games can only be played using a Game Boy Advance connected with a GBA to GameCube link cable. | |||

[[File:Wario Dash Attack WarioWorld.png|thumb|The Dash Attack, one of Wario's normal moves.]] | |||
===Regular Moves=== | |||
[[Wario]] has many moves in this game, including several returning ones from the mainline ''Wario Land'' games. | |||
*'''[[Jump]]''' | |||
*'''[[Punch]]''': A new move introduced in this game, it helps Wario beat up enemies and crush objects. | |||
*'''[[Dash Attack]]''': One of Wario's signature moves, he rushes forward and uses his shoulder to ram into anyone or anything. | |||
*'''[[Hyper Suction]]''': Wario can open his mouth to suck in nearby [[coin]]s and [[garlic]]. | |||
*'''[[Ground Pound]]''': A move that appears in many platformers in some way, Wario can pound enemies with the weight of his body. | |||
*'''[[Corkscrew Conk]]''': Wario can turn into a rampaging, spinning yellow ball and hit high-flying enemies. | |||
===Mad Moves=== | |||
The three Mad Moves are Wario's three most powerful moves, and can only be used after picking up an enemy first. Using them is the only way to damage many of the game's bosses. | |||
*'''[[Mega Toss]]''': After stunning and picking up an enemy, Wario can throw it with all his might. | |||
*'''[[Piledriver]]''': After stunning an enemy, he can also use them to slam, hard, into the ground, destroying that enemy and damaging any others nearby. Wario can also use this move to drill through special Trapdoors. | |||
*'''[[Wild Swing-Ding]]''': Wario can also swing an enemy around at a very fast speed, taking out groups of other enemies, or use them to open special doors that require him to spin the enemy in front of a switch. | |||

The game received fairly positive reviews, being praised by critics for its gameplay, but was also criticized by many for its short length. {{wp|GameSpy}} commented that "the game offers a little beyond of what the regular tridimensional games offers, however, what is offered is short and repetitive". {{wp|GameSpot}} stated that its length and simplicity cannot hold the player's attention for more than a day. The ''{{wp|Play (US magazine)|Play}}'' magazine gave the game a perfect score, stating that "''Wario World'' pays off every second the player holding the controller, and that is greatness". ''{{wp|Game Informer}}'' praised the game's boss battles. {{wp|IGN}}'s reviewer, Matt Casamassina, stated that "the game is fine, but not as fine as a ''Super Mario'' game".<ref> | The game received fairly positive reviews, being praised by critics for its gameplay, but was also criticized by many for its short length. {{wp|GameSpy}} commented that "the game offers a little beyond of what the regular tridimensional games offers, however, what is offered is short and repetitive". {{wp|GameSpot}} stated that its length and simplicity cannot hold the player's attention for more than a day.
