— Munchy Monk Description

Template:Minigame infobox Munchy Monk (しゅうぎょう shugyou "training") is the name of the sixteenth game in Rhythm Heaven for the DS.

Rhythm Heaven

It features a monk training in the art of eating dumplings. A sequel is unlocked later called Munchy Monk 2.

Gameplay

The Munchy Monk raises out his hand as a person continuously gives him dumplings to eat. He will give the Munchy Monk either one, two, or three dumplings in a row. The monk eats the dumplings by slapping his wrist in order to pop the dumpling in his mouth. To do this correctly, the player must time it right by only tapping the touch screen right after the person says "Go!".

The rhythm tempo will increase depending on the number of dumplings he gives him at a time. The three different tempos are:

• "One, go!": The person gives the monk one white dumpling. These are always consecutive, and require tapping at a constant pace.
• "Two-two!": The person gives the monk two pink dumplings. After a slight pause, two quick taps must be made in rhythm.
• "Three, go, go, go!": The person gives the monk three green dumplings in a row. These require faster tapping to eat them all.

Controls

• Tap: Slap wrist

Hit or Miss

• Hit: The dumpling flies into the mouth of the Monk and he successfully swallows it.
• Barely: The dumpling flies and hits the Monk's nose in which he exclaims in surprise. A barely counts as a miss.
• Miss: The dumpling falls out off the Monk's hand.

Rating Notes

• Try Again: "You are in grave danger!"
• OK: "You have achieved total fullness!"
• Superb: "Now YOU are the master!"
