    I have yet to find a puzzle game quite like this one.

    Wario's Woods originally came out on the NES, but because of the system's end at the time of the release, it was also released on the SNES soon after. However, there are significant differences to the two games making th... Read Full Review

What Gamespot Users have to say about Wario's Woods

  • Rating:7.5

    Wario's Woods is one of the best puzzle games out there, as you will spend many hours playing this classic.

    Highs: Soild gameplay, decent graphics, decent music, controls nicely, and a good story as well. Lows: Can be unforgiving on newer players, sound effects are a little dated, also came out in 1994 like Mega Man 6 did. ... Read Full Review

    Wario's Woods is by far the best puzzle game you will see on the NES.

    This is seen today as something of the past, and something that made no real difference in the path of storylines and future games. This game, however, is fun, catchy, well designed, and it's uniquely challenging in a nu... Read Full Review

    Clever mechanics give you the power to get out of some very sticky situations.

    This game captures the wild puzzle element that causes your eye to become a shape-color recognition demon. You sit, transfixed, as your throbbing brain sorts this pile of monsters and bombs, identifying possible configur... Read Full Review

    Another attempt at a Mario-based puzzle game

    Dr. Mario was the premium when it came to puzzle games in the first couple generations of consoles. Tetris Attack was a successful SNES addition, but Wario's Woods tried to make the puzzle genre a little different, and ... Read Full Review

    I picked up this game out of shear boredom and found a rather entertaining little puzzle game with enough variability to keep me occupied. Wario's Woods is an addictive puzzle game that differs from the standard 'drop pi... Read Full Review
