Break the Bank is one of the microgames in Mona's That's Life level in WarioWare: Get It Together! Its name comes from the expression referring to something too expensive for one to purchase.

Gameplay[edit]

The object of this microgame is to knock a piggy bank down from a platform on a stool so the piggy bank shatters on the ground. The piggy bank resists direct attack, meaning knocking over the platform to push the piggy bank is easier. If the game is won, money rains from the top of the screen.

  • Level 1: The piggy bank is on a platform that can be knocked down either left or right.
  • Level 2: The piggy bank is on a platform that leans left or right, and can only be knocked down in one direction.
  • Level 3: The piggy bank is on a platform that is the same as Level 1 or Level 2, but with more blocks.

If two players are utilized for this microgame, the player that makes the piggy bank drop to the ground receives an effort point.

Mission[edit]

  • Drop Everything: On Level 3, the player must push everything off of the stool so that nothing touches it.
