Introduction

The Russo family appears to be a typical New York City family, but they are nothing of
the sort. Alex, Justin and Max are everyday kids who also happen to be wizards in
training. Their father Jerry heads up Wizard Class when he’s not busy running the
family restaurant, Waverly Sub Station, with their mom Theresa.

Sibling rivalry is anything but ordinary as the Russo kids figure out they can use magic
for anything from household chores to getting even with each other. In Disney Wizards
of Waverly Place, take control of Alex, Justin and Max and try to clean up their messes
before their parents bust them. After all, for the Russos, being a teenager can be tricky!

Getting Started

2) Insert the Disney Wizards of Waverly Place Game Card in the Nintendo DS™

Flying Sub Game

Move the stylus around the Touch Screen, keeping the magic lasso over a flying sub
to catch it. Once the lasso turns red, flick the stylus down to drag the flying sub back
down. When the flying sub lands in the sandwich basket, quickly cast the Undo Magic
spell to turn the sub back to normal.

Potion Making Game

Fill up the magic vial on the top screen by tapping potion balls on the bottom screen.
Try to use potion ball combos to fill the vial faster. Tap on the potion balls in the order

shown in the combo bar at the top of the Touch Screen to complete combos.

Locker Game

Tap on the lockers on the Touch Screen in the correct order to make all the lockers on
the top and bottom screens close at once.

Flying Books Game

Drag the stylus around the Touch Screen to keep the magic lasso over a flying book.
Once the lasso turns red, flick the stylus down to drag the flying book back down. Use
the stylus to place the books on the shelf, so that the letters on the book spines spell
out the answer to the trivia question posed.

Coffee Cup Game

Fill up the coffee cup on the top screen by tapping potion balls on the bottom screen.
Try to use potion ball combos to fill the coffee cup faster. Tap on the potion balls in the

order shown in the combo bar at the top of the Touch Screen to complete combos.

Use the stylus to drag the pieces of the science project from the storage area at the
bottom of the Touch Screen to the numbered spots. A project piece will stick to the
apparatus if you have dragged it to the correct spot.

Dodgeball Game

Move left and right with the +Control Pad to avoid the incoming dodgeballs. Press up
on the +Control Pad to catch a dodgeball. After the incoming balls have hit the wall
and stopped, you can pick them up by running over them. Flick the stylus upward
toward the top of the Touch Screen to throw the dodgeballs back at the opposing
players.

Catapult Darts Game

Move the catapult left and right with the +Control Pad. Use the stylus to pull back the

12 Ball Game

Drag the stylus left and right across the Touch Screen to move your racket. Bounce
the balls back past your opponent without letting any get past you. The first player to
get 30 balls past their opponent wins.

Special situations call for Advanced Spells. Select an Advanced Spell from the list that
you think will solve the problem you are facing. To cast each Advanced Spell, you have
to complete a minigame within the time limit:

Connect the Dots: Without lifting the stylus from the Touch Screen, connect 10 dots
together to make the motion for the Special Spell.

Follow the Arrows: Trace the stylus along the path of 15 arrows in succession.
Trace the Arrow: Trace the stylus along the path of the winding arrow without veering

off the path.
