It is set in the [[Golden Pyramid]], a large, labyrinth of a pyramid which [[Wario]] must make his way through to defeat the [[Golden Diva]] and rescue the [[Princess Shokora]]. This passage is horror-themed, with several ghost-like [[:Category:Wario Land 4 enemies|enemies]] such as [[Skeleton Bird]], [[Men'ono]] and a [[Ghost (Wario Land 4)|ghost]]. The boss of this passage is [[Catbat]], a ghostly combination of a cat and a bat. The [[jewel piece]]s in this passage are sapphires, and the [[CD]]s are blue. This is considered the most difficult main passage. Other passages include the [[Entry Passage]], [[Emerald Passage]], [[Ruby Passage]], [[Topaz Passage]] and the [[Golden Pyramid]]. | ||

The first level of the Sapphire Passage introduces the many ghostly enemies that are native to the horror-themed levels, such as the [[Skeleton Bird]] and [[Men'ono]]. Most of the level takes a straight path, with many blocks and posts as obstacles. A notable enemy appearance in such areas is the [[Ghost (Wario Land 4)|ghost]], who, similar to [[Hoggus]], appears in the level's background and cannot be touched. Unlike Hoggus, the ghost does not harm Wario. Instead, he watches from afar as Wario makes his progress. Whenever Wario defeats an [[:Category:Wario Land 4 enemies|enemy]] or breaks a block, [[Coin (Wario Land 4)|coins]] will be produced, which they will scatter across the ground. The ghost's obsession is money, and he will dive and gather up as much money as he can if they are left unattended. Also, once Wario obtains the Keyzer, the ghost will try to steal it. If he succeeds, Wario will have to chase him to retrieve it, thus wasting valuable time. | ||

| | |Arabian Night is set in an abandoned Arabian village, with its Arabian-style buildings and unique [[magic carpet|flying carpet]]s. Most of the level requires Wario to ride one of these flying carpets by jumping, causing the carpet to rise below his feet. [[Mayubird]]s are in abundance in the skies, where they will harm Wario if he makes contact with their fangs. The level consists of two parts, the inside and outside areas which link to each other via doors. While the inside areas are situated in the buildings that Wario can enter, the outside is everywhere else. Wario can also turn into his [[Bat Wario|bat form]] in this level. | ||

|The Fiery Cavern | |The Fiery Cavern level is set in an underground cavern with many pools of lava. Wario is able to swim in this lava in the same way as he swims in water, but he will take a great deal of damage. An [[:Category:Wario Land 4 enemies|enemy]] that is unique to this level is the [[Bowler]], a primate that hurls giant boulders that damage Wario if he happens to be in its path. Wario can only defeat these creatures by performing a [[Wario Land 4#Wario's moves|ground pound]] to the head. Wario will come across these creatures in great numbers throughout the first half of the level. In the second half, when Wario hits the unavoidable [[Switch (Wario Land 4)|switch]], everything in the level will freeze over, including the lava and even the Bowlers will be covered in a layer of ice. As a result, Wario is now able to safely travel over the cooled lava (which is now solid ice). Strangely, Bowlers, when frozen over, will quickly evolve into [[Yeti]]. These creatures have a white coat and always appear to be sneezing, casting icicles that will transform Wario into [[Frozen Wario]]. | ||

Wario enters the level on the first floor, at room 101. Every room in the hotel is accessible, but not always straight through the front door. All rooms link to each other in one way or another. Most rooms consist of two floors, so there are two entrances. To the left of the hotel is an emergency staircase, where a [[Skeleton Bird]] hangs around the area. Wario can access each floor's left side by climbing the steps in the staircase, but the Skeleton Bird should generally be avoided because it releases a green goo that transforms Wario into [[Zombie Wario]], sending him falling through the floor. Enemies that populate the level's corridors are ghostly creatures such as [[Men'ono]] and [[Minicula]]. When the Frog Switch is hit, all doors with a frog sign on the front will be unlocked. | ||

There is a pool of Water below the unstable flooring where a [[mechanical fish]] patrols by swimming back and forth. The drill on the creature's head will harm Wario if he is to make contact. Catbat creates waves which must be jumped over. Wario can also balance on top of these moving waves to jump and [[Wario Land 4#Wario's moves|ram]] the bat's weak spot. Once he does so, Catbat will take damage. In retaliation, he spits out orange and purple spikes, which either damage Wario or turn him into [[Puffy Wario]], respectively. The latter's purpose is to waste time. Defeating Catbat restores the [[legendary treasure|Bracelets]] to the [[Golden Pyramid]]. | ||
