Dodge Balls is one of Wario's introduction microgames in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!.

Gameplay[edit]

In this microgame, Wario and his car are set in an arena where boulders roll and bounce around, either by touching the walls or each other. The player must control the car to avoid being squashed by these boulders until the end of the microgame. If the player lets Wario get rolled over by the rolling boulders, he and the car get crushed, ending the microgame in a loss.

  • Level 1: There are two boulders.
  • Level 2: There are three boulders.
  • Level 3: There are four boulders.
