Story

Hey, listen up! It’s me, Wario! Yeah, I know you’dnever know it, since I’m wearing this great disguise!

It’s all part of my new scheme to get rich! I was watching this stupid TV show about a master thiefcalled The Silver Zephyr, when I had the brilliantidea to break into the show and take it over!

So after I invented a helmet that got me into theTV, I crashed the scene of the crime caper, landedon the head of the show’s star, and stole his magicwand. How’s that for breaking into the big time?!

Clobber enemies to get Treasures!

Surrounded by enemies? Use one of my actions (see p. 18 – 27), to take thechumps down! Enemies drop coins and gems when they get defeated. You betterpick ‘em up! And don’t even think about walking by a treasure chest withoutcrackin’ it open! Unlock it and swipe everything that’s inside (see p. 19)!

Disguises

Every stage is filled with traps and tricky situationsthat I can get through with my disguises. So whenyou’re stuck, try using different disguises (see p. 20 –27). To get more disguises and more powers, you’regonna have to find Guise Gems and Mastery Gems.

Beat up Bosses!

I was this close to an awesome treasure, and thenthis boss shows up! It’s a hassle, but you can’t beat a stage until you beat that boss down. I’ll make myway back to my TV room when you’re done. So hangin there!You’ll see hints in the bottom left corner of the Touch Screenabout which disguise you should use, shown as one of theicons from the top screen. You might wanna pay attention!
