The [[Munchy Monk (character)|Munchy Monk]] raises out his hand as off-screen people continuously give him dumplings to eat. He eats them by slapping his wrist precisely as the off-screen character says "Go!" to fling the dumplings in his mouth. There are three cues to follow:
*Training 1 [Eat one]: The monk receives a single white dumpling with a voice saying {{Nihongo|One! Go!|嘿呦!|hèi you}} to indicate the timing.
*Training 2 [Eat three]: The monk receives three green dumplings in a row with a voice saying {{Nihongo|Three! Go! Go! Go!|一,二,三,四!|yī, èr, sān, sì}} to indicate the timing.
*Training 3 [Eat two]: The monk receives two pink dumplings and must slap his wrist twice quickly to eat them. The voice says {{Nihongo|Two-two! Go! Go!|呦呦,咚咚|yòu yòu, dong dong}} to indicate the timing.


The discription of the game is "''Your training takes place deep in the mountains. We call it training, but it's really just eating dumplings all day. Enjoy!''"
In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the monk is redesigned, looking closer to his design in [[Munchy Monk (Wii)|Munchy Monk]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', as well as carrying a baby on his back during the real game. The background is more detailed and animated.

{{Timing
|just=The dumpling flies into the monk's mouth and he successfully swallows it. If not interrupted, he blushes and smiles afterward while his mustache starts growing up.
|miss=The dumpling flies and hits the monk's nose, making it turn red as he frowns.
|through=The dumpling falls out of the Monk's hand (in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', this is also accompanied by a "doink" noise). If the player tries hitting the monk's hand just as the dumping is being placed on it, it hits him square in the face, with the monk looking confused.}}

|[[Tsunku|つんく♂]] 自分でつくっていてこういうのもナンですけどと、DS版では最高にお気に入りの曲です。本当はシューティングっぽいゲームになるのかなと思って、曲をつくったんですけと、どうして[[wikipedia:Manjū|まんじゅう]]をもってきたのか、よくわからんのです(笑)。まんじゅうが口に入ったときは、めちゃくちゃ気持ちいいですけどね。
|[[Tsunku♂]]: I know it's strange for me to say this, but this is my favorite song for the DS version. I made the song thinking that the game would be like a shooting game, but I'm not sure why I chose to use [[wikipedia:Manjū|manjū]]. (laughs) It feels really good when a manju goes into your mouth, though.

|[[niwanetwork:Masami Yone|米]] 最初は「おやつ」というタイトルだったんです。だから、まんじゅうじゃなくてお菓子を食べてたんですけど、いつの閑にか「しゅぎょう」になっていました(笑)。まんじゅうを食べることがしゅぎょうのひとつ…ということなんですかね。
|[[niwanetwork:Masami Yone|Yone]]: At first, the title was "Oyatsu" (snack). So you were eating snacks, not manju, but before I knew it, it had become "Shugyo" (laughs). So eating manju is a kind of "shugyo" (training)...is that right?

There is only one control of the game, which is tapping. When you tap, eats the dumplings. If you eat dumplings, a moustache starts to grow.
==Trivia==
*This game is a parody on real ancient [[wikipedia:Monk|monks]], who (depending on the religion) starve themselves as part of their training, while here it's the opposite.
*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Gold]]'' and ''[[Rhythm World]]'', the announcer speaks in Chinese.
*Oddly, the player is able to flick in this game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', despite this action not doing anything. This trait is shared with [[Shoot-'Em-Up (DS)|Shoot-'Em-Up]], [[Freeze Frame]] and [[Drummer Duel]]. All other games that don't use the flick don't allow the player to perform it.
**Excluding the ability to flick despite not needing to, this is one of the few games to keep the same controls from ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' to ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' in Simple Tap mode, alongside [[Shoot-'em-up 2]] and [[Freeze Frame]]. In addition, [[Fillbots 2|Fillbots]] and [[Lockstep]] keep the same controls completely.
*Since its inception, Munchy Monk has enjoyed perfect attendance in the series, re-appearing in both ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' (as an [[Munchy Monk (Wii)|Endless Game]]) and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. It shares a similar status as the likes of [[Karate Man]], [[Samurai Slice]], and [[Built to Scale]].
*The game has the same rhythm as ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'''s [[Micro-Row 2 (Wii)|Micro-Row 2]].
*[[Employee #333-4-591032]] in [[Packing Pests]] bears a striking resemblance to the [[Munchy Monk (character)|Munchy Monk]]. Notably, both games involve characters using their hands, and both involve food in some way.
*This game appears in the "[[Wario...Where?]]" [[Challenge Train]] course, where the Monk is replaced by [[Master Mantis]]. [[Young Cricket]] can be seen riding a cloud in the background, similar to the [[Monkey]] in [[Final Remix]].
*This is the shortest game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', lasting only 49 seconds.
**This also makes it the shortest long version game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.
