Hole in One

"You know what will really improve your golf game? Timing your swings to music!"

- Hole in One Description

Hole in One (ホールインワン 'Houruinwan?) is the 1st minigame played in Rhythm Heaven Fever and 30th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The player takes control of a golfer who hits the golf balls thrown to him by Monkey and Mandrill. Its practice mode starts with the character monkey introducing the main concept of rhythm and demonstarting its importance within the game. The sequel, Hole in One 2, is unlocked later on.

Gameplay
Monkey and Mandrill throws golf balls toward the player, who must press A button to hit them at the right time to launch them across a lake and directly into the golf hole. Monkey makes a two-beat cue, throwing the golf ball on the second beat in which the player must hit on the third. Mandrill makes a four-beat cue, throwing the golf ball much more aggressively on the fourth beat which the player must hit at the same time.

Button Mode

 * A: Swing golf club

Simple Tap Mode

 * Tap: Swing golf club

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The player will hit the golf balls over to the island. Depending on how precise you hit it, the zoom bubble will show it either roll around the hole's edge and then fall in, fall right in the hole and clink on the sides, or land right next to the hole and zoom into it.
 * Barely: The player will hit the golf balls, but they will be either knocked to the left or right (depending on how early or late it it hit), landing in water. A barely counts as a miss in this game.
 * Miss: For small golf balls, they will roll past the player, with Monkey frowning. For Mandrill's throws, they will fly into the golfer's leg, causing him to wince in pain.

Trivia

 * This is one of the many games in the Rhythm Heaven franchise to feature Monkey. Examples from other games include Tap Trial and Fan Club.
 * Monkey's design in the game appears to be based off the monkeys from Tap Trial. This design is also the influence for the monkeys in Tambourine, Monkey Watch, and Exhibition Match.
 * This is one of a few games from Rhythm Heaven Fever to have its practice changed in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, as in the original it was much longer due to being the first game played.
