Wario: Master of Disguise Details

Wario: Master of Disguise

Game players everywhere breathed a collective sigh of relief when games like New Super Mario Bros. showed us that there's life in the 2D platformer yet, and that its home is the DS. True to form, Nintendo's at it again with Wario: Master of Disguise.

Wario's been the star of so many mini game collections with the WarioWare series that you could be forgiven for forgetting that his origin is in platforming and the Wario Land series. Here, however, the moustachioed anti-hero is getting back to his roots.

Wario has come into possession of a tricky little device that allows him to jump into TV shows. He's not interested, however, in hanging out with David Hasselhoff in KnightRider. He's not bothered about paying a visit to the loft in Hollyoaks. Instead, he leaps into the programme of master thief Count Camoli, steals his quick change wand (called Goodstyle) and uses it to nick a load of loot.

What follows is traditional platforming with a healthy dose of puzzling thrown in for good measure. As you progress, you'll find yourself with an increasing number of disguises to change into, which you'll then unlock with the DS stylus. Up for grabs are the likes of Thief Wario, Cosmic Wario, Captain Wario and Wicked Wario.
