List of WarioWare: D.I.Y. microgames
The following is a list of all the pre-made microgames that appear in the game WarioWare: D.I.Y. Each genre and set is organized by each character. If the British English names are different from the American English names, they are separated by a forward slash.
Microgames with an italic font last twice as long.
Strange[edit]
Mona hosts microgames from the Strange genre. 10 microgames are played before the boss. Mona's intermission stage consists of her and Joe navigating through a temple with the score shown on a frame on the ceiling. The number of lives is represented by torches. If the player wins, the faces on the walls laugh. If the player loses, they encounter a swarm of bats. When the player defeats a boss, Mona sells the treasure that she found. The player can tap the screen to "buy" the treasure. When the player runs out of lives, Mona and Joe run out of the temple.

The player can tap the screen to take different snapshots. Unlike other stages, there is no boss jingle. When the player runs out of lives, Jimmy T. bends down in disappointment.

Block to reveal a microgame, particularly World 1-1, with the score displayed on a cloud above the block. The number of lives is represented by his mugshot with a counter (unlike other stages which uses a number of icons). If the player wins, 9-Volt collects coins from the block and the sky turns yellow. If the player loses, a hole opens up, 9-Volt falls through it, and the sky turns purple. During a "Speed Up!" or if the player earns an extra life, 9-Volt eats a food item accompanied with a Super Mushroom get jingle for the former and a 1-Up Mushroom get jingle for the latter. When the player encounters the boss, the sky turns red. When the player defeats the boss, 9-Volt enters the castle at the end. If the player taps the screen, fireworks appear in the background and a "V" flag flies above the castle. When the player runs out of lives, the screen scrolls back to the main menu similar to Super Mario Bros.
