An impressive romhack that could honestly pass for an official Nintendo release in my eyes. The level quality feels completely on par with the original game, all the while bringing its own unique spin to the table, including several callbacks to the previous Wario Land games. They even slightly remixed all of the bosses, minus Aerodent, from what I can tell. Then again, I would love to strangle the person who designed the Aerodent fight in the first place, so that's probably a blessing in disguise. In a similar way though, the game also carries over some of WL4's problems. Biggest gripe had to be how certain collectibles were behind do-or-die situations, usually resulting in me rushing through a level a second time to pick up what I missed. Regardless, if you're a fan of Wario Land 4 (and have played the game to death like me), or you're a fan of the Wario Land series in general, this is definitely worth your time.

Before you ask, why yes, I did play this because Pizza Tower put me in the mood. Needed more garlic.
