I Came, I Saw is one of Mona's microgames found in the Strange folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and returns as one of her microgames in the That's Life set within the Mash League in WarioWare Gold. The name of this microgame comes from the sentence, "I came, I saw, I conquered," a quote popularly attributed to Roman general and dictator Julius Caesar used as an idiom for a rapid victory.

Gameplay[edit]

There is a log in the middle of the screen, with a saw next to it. The player must repeatedly press +Control Pad left and +Control Pad right to saw through the log and reveal what is inside.

  • Level 1: The log is small and it takes four presses to cut. In Mega Microgame$!, a cuckoo is found inside. In Gold, a worm is found inside, sitting on a chair or toilet.
  • Level 2: The log is medium-sized and it takes six presses to cut. In Mega Microgame$!, a person with a big white afro is found inside. In Gold, a woodpecker will be trying to catch the worm, or the worm will be on a date or sleeping.
  • Level 3: The log is big and it takes eight presses to cut. In Mega Microgame$!, the Baker from Mario Paint is found doing push-ups inside. In Gold, the worm will be either cooking, taking a shower, floating on draining water, or working out.
