Hole in One 2

Hole in One 2 (ホールインワン2 'Houruinwan 2?) is the forty-fourth rhythm game in  Rhythm Heaven Fever. It is the sequel to Hole in One. In this sequel, you are playing a young female golfer who is learning from Monkey and Mandrill how to become a great golfer like pros. Getting a perfect will unlock the soundtrack of the game.

Appearance/Gameplay differences


The game seems to take place in the sky, with the characters positioned on a pink cloud with multicolored palm trees on it, hitting golf balls over to another cloud. The player golfer is now female, Monkey is pink instead of brown, and Mandrill has a pink face and tan belly, along with a taller hair tuft.

The game is mechanically the same as the first Hole in One; the player needs to hit the golf balls as Monkey and Mandrill throw them. However, this game has Monkey throw the golf balls with less delay in between, and will throw many of them in a row, requiring the player to hit them faster. Mandrill's offbeat throws are much more frequent as well, at one point throwing two in a row.

Controls

 * A: Swing golf club (hit golf balls)

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.
 * 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 her to wince in pain.

American Version

 * Try Again: "I didn't even qualify..."
 * OK: "I'll bet I can sink one more!"
 * Superb: "Perfect form!"

European/Australian Version

 * Try Again: "Not another one in the bunker..."
 * OK: "I'm sure I can sink this one!"
 * Superb: "Perfect form!"

Trivia

 * Mandrill's taller hair gets called back to in Remix 9, where his hair is as tall as the screen, with the monkey from Board Meeting, in the version of Remix 2, climbing it.
 * The game seems to be played on "Rhythm Heaven", due to it's similar appearance to the place in Remix 7‘s or Remix 10's rating screens.
 * Probably, the Superb Rating Screen phrase doesn't change between the American and European versions.
