I Came, I Saw is one of Mona's microgames in both the Strange folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and 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.
