The series that is known for whacky mini games, crazy antics, and fast paced fun is back with WarioWare Get It Together. This game has a big emphasis on multiplayer, to where there are only one mode made for a single player, and you can even play the entire story mode with another person. Then there are plenty of party game modes for two to four people, and they seem like they could be a ton of fun. But I have not been able to try these modes, so in the meantime, I wanted to talk about this game from a single player point of view, and let you see if it is worth it.

The graphics and music are great, there is even one stand out song later on in the game that I still find myself listening to from time to time. The presentation is fun, and whacky and the style of this game is great. The only problem I have is that there is voice acting but only for some parts, the partial voice acting is really distracting compared to the previous entry WarioWare Gold which had full on voice acting for the previous console. So that exclusion is baffling, but the music, graphics, and presentation are great.  

This game has Wario and friends being transported into the world of a videogame they were all working on. You get all sorts of great micro games ranging from Nintendo references, to food, to space to art and more. You begin with Wario but with new character you meet you can then play as them. The core gameplay being the same as most games in this series, which entails beating as many microgames as you can and getting a high score is still super fun and great to play. This time you take control of a set of the vast amount of cast members, each using their own skill such as only shooting lasers, moving without stop, or always jumping. 

Every game is playable with every character, some may be more challenging for certain characters then others but no game is impossible. It is set that way to encourage players to try out the whole cast and have a group composed with characters with different move sets. There modes later that utilize the whole cast as well. Each one controlling well. There are also party games, mostly for multiplayer but a couple for the single player. They are fun distractions at best but the enjoyment of them varies for every player and they did not hold my attention for long compared to the core gameplay. 

The story mode will last anyone about three hours for the whole journey and the other party modes may or may not grip your attention, there are also online leaderboard challenge. But with the story mode being co op and the abundance of party modes, this game is clearly designed for multiplayer so I therefore did not have a full experience. I enjoyed my time but my time was short, and this seems like a great party game with single player options, unlike other games in the series which were the other way around. 

This game has a ton of variety from characters to modes, but this game is definitely better suited for multiplayer. The game has more modes that bar a single player then ever before, and has some fun challenges and a great story but they are short, and the multiplayer content with the options of the story and those modes as well, outweigh that. So if you are planning on flying solo, maybe continue a different game starring Wario.

One game comes to mind actually.
