Wario: Master of Disguise sends the greedy Wario back into a new 2-D platformer - one with a unique touchscreen control system. When Wario sees a television series about a thieving master of disguises, he dives through the TV screen, steals the thief's quick-change wand and takes over the show.

I was very upset over this game. Most of the time drawing the costumes does NOT work, the levals are to long and triesom, it's save feature is wacked out crazy. It's actually a puzzle game, there really isnt much action at all! I guess I just expected something diffrent.

I was glued to this game for two weeks straight! It does have its downsides, but overall I still think it's well worth buying and playing.

Pros:

-This game has a good balance of arcade action and mental puzzles as you have to figure out which disguise is best suited to the situation, and how to make it work. Even as an adult I was still scratching my head at some parts! It was kind of cool to have to earn and collect new disguises, and each disguise has two levels, so you keep finding new things all the way up to the end of the game.

-It follows the classic Wario format--you play the role of a greedy, nasty little fat man who will do anything for some more treasure! You go around locating and opening treasure chests through mini-games, and have to tackle a "boss" at the end of each level. This game format can be pretty fun, as you know from past games.

-The frequent save points that you can go back to whenever you like is nice. I hate some of the Mario games where you have to wait sooo long between save points.

Cons:

-It almost tries TOO hard to utilize all the DS features. Having to use both the D-pad AND the stylus at all times feels awkward at first, though you get used to it quickly. I, for one, got a little lightheaded after having to blow into the microphone to keep Demon Wario afloat.

-In Brain Age we discovered that the DS handwriting recognition isn't too reliable, and this game proves that sometimes it just can't tell a circle from a square. It's really annoying to die and have to go back to your save point because it couldn't figure out what disguise you were trying to draw while you were fighting a boss.

-I know this is never a strong point in any nintendo game, but the script is terrible. Mostly it's a tedious string of references to farting. This makes it ideal for the 8-12 age group, though.

-The mini games are pretty lame.

Overall, if you buy this game, be prepared for fun--but also a bit of frustration.

This game is simple but quiz and puzzle mix together.
Find green, purple and red treasure chest to go thru each stage.
It is fun for perhaps 8+ to adult. It is hard for my son 6 years old to figure out how to go thru some places so he needed help. I helped him and I'm the one enjoyed playing this game. I recommend to adult as well.
Wario character is catchy for people who knows Mario so kids like it but not for under 8 or 10 I think they might need some help for adult.

So I got this game about 4 days ago. I am on episode to now for an hour. Not sure how to end this level? But the game overall is okay. I like changing the disguises to various things. The biggest thing I don't like is not knowing where I am going or what I am suppose to do. I bought it here almost new for $[...] so I figure once I get the hang of it that it's worth about that.

If you play video games to relax don't buy this game. The opening story takes a good 15 minutes to get through, if I wanted to read I'd have picked up a book. It uses the stylus a LOT and half the time it doesn't read what you're trying to input. I was looking for an adventure game to relax on a rare day off and I just finished Mario v DK March of the Minis. After a half hour of messing with these rotten controls and the endless tutorial text I tossed the game and gave up. Total waste of 30 bucks and 30 minutes.
