A brilliant, but somewhat crazy scientist prone to self-experimentation. Dr. Crygor makes his home in Diamond City and has known Wario for some time, having been the one to design the Wario Car. In addition to that, he also designed the taxi car Dribble and Spitz uses. Thanks to his experimentations, half of his head is metal-plated. He has also lived to be 100 years, despite appearing to only be half that age. He keeps his lab on an island off the Diamond City coast and travels by using the jetpack on his back.

Background

Dr. Crygor inevitably became one of the Wario Ware programmers, with his games tending to have a more realistic touch to them. After some failed experiments that took him to the bathroom, he invented the Gravitator that enabled the creation of Wario-Man, Wario's superhero alter ego, and the karaoke robot 'Mike', as well as a device that made old things 'new' and effectively improved Crygor's own abilities when he used it on himself.

In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, Cygor was revealed to have a granddaughter named Penny. He dueled her in an "Invent-Off" but was defeated. Crygor, Penny and Mike proceeded to dance. Dr. Crygor also had his own area in the game, which could be unlocked by completing the extra stage with Orbulon. In this stage Crygor and Mike operated the Kelorometer, which employed microgames modified to make the player exercise and lose weight.

In WarioWare: D.I.Y., Dr. Crygor is inspired by a weird dream to make an invention that can almost instantly create microgames, records and black-and-white comics. He explains it to Wario once Wario comes over to make Crygor fix his broken television, at which point Wario is inspired to use the machine to make money. Crygor's laboratory could eventually be unlocked, where the player could use the invention to make their own microgames, records and comics.

Trivia

  • In Twisted! his games are gravity-based, whereas his Touched! games are based on making circles with the stylus.
  • He appears as a sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, using artwork from WarioWare: Touched!.
  • He has also apparently created Mona's moped, Jimmy T.'s cell phone and Kat's sword.
