Ashley (Game & Wario)
Ashley is a minigame hosted by Ashley and Red in Game & Wario. It is a single player game
Story
At her mansion, Ashley reads a book and eventually comes across a page depicting monsters and a surreal landscape. The illustration catch her interest and she decides to cast a spell to be materialised inside the book page. However, as she performs it, winds blows, turning the book to a page depicting sweets and candies. Ashley and Red are then transported inside the candy-themed page. Red is pleased by this development, but a furious Ashley orders him to transform into a broom in order to escape the candy world.
Gameplay
The game is an horizontally-scrolling shoot'em up. Movement is controlled by angling the GamePad upward and downward. The objective is to progress through the levels while collecting purple candies and presents, and shooting floating pastries with magic blasts. Collecting items give points, and progressing without being hit increases the score multiplier. In addition to shooting magic blasts, Ashley can collect spells, which when activated, destroy every enemies on-screen and collect any item present. A certain number of points is needed in order to move on to the next stage.
Ashley can be hit an unlimited number of times, but being hit retire points and resets the multiplier. Additionally, if she is hit too many times in a row, the scrolling stops and the player will have to poke her on the GamePad's screen in order to continue.
At certain points, the player is prompted to select between two paths. There are three stages in total, each of which conclude with a boss battle.
