Unlike ''Wario Land 2'' and ''3'', Wario is no longer immortal and now has a health bar. However Wario is still not immune to status effects inflicted on him by the enemy and many of these abilities continue to be necessary to find all the treasure in the stage.

New to the game is that Wario must reach the end and find the key and activate the Frog Switch. Once he does so, he has a time limit to go back to the beginning of the level or he begins losing his coins one by one until he runs out. Unless Wario gets the key, he will be unable to enter the next level. The game is divided up into four passages, each with a theme, ending with four of the six bosses in the game.

The game shows Wario driving the [[Wario Car]] in the intro and ending. The Wario Car would go on to be the model for the kart Wario uses in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The Wario Car is also seen in the [[Portal: Wario|WarioWare]] series.

*In 2011, it was among the set of Game Boy Advance games that were released for free download on the [[3DS]] to those participating in the [[3DS Virtual Console#Ambassador_Program|Ambassador Program]]. It did not receive a normal eshop release through the 3DS, but it was eventually released for the [[[Wii U]] through its [[Wii U Virtual Console|Virtual Console]] in 2014.
+
The game went without a sequel for a long time afterwards, although [[Wario World]] followed it on the Gamecube, it was stylistically different. For several years though Wario lived on only in the ''Wario Ware'' series until at last in 2007, Wario received another platforming game with [[Wario: Master of Disguise]]. In 2008, an actual sequel was released, titled ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]''.
