The Munchy Monk raises out his hand as off-screen people continuously give him dumplings to eat. They 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 reacting right as the person says "Go!". The cues are:
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:
*"One! Go!": The person gives the monk one white dumpling. These are always consecutive and require tapping/button pressing at a constant pace.
*Training 1 [Eat one]: The monk receives a single white dumpling with a voice saying "One! Go!" to indicate the timing.
*"Three! Go! Go! Go!": The person gives the monk three green dumplings in a row. These require faster tapping/presses to eat them all.
*Training 2 [Eat three]: The monk receives three green dumplings in a row with a voice saying "Three! Go! Go! Go!" to indicate the timing.
*"Two-two! Go-go!": The person gives the monk two pink dumplings. After a slight pause, two quick taps/button presses must be made in rhythm.
*Training 3 [Eat two]: The monk receives two pink dumplings and must slap his wrist twice quickly to eat them. The voice says "Two-two! Go! Go!" to indicate the timing.
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.

*'''Perfect!/Ace!''': The dumpling flies into the mouth of the Monk and he successfully swallows it. If not interrupted, the Monk will blush and smile afterward.
*'''Early!/Late!''': The dumpling flies and hits the left side (if early) or right side (if late) of the Monk's nose.
*'''Miss...''': If you're way too early or way too late, the dumpling will hit the Monk squarely on the nose, causing him to shout in surprise. If you do not tap at all, the dumpling falls out of the Monk's hand.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In the Japanese and Korean versions, when you are given three dumplings, the voice counts "1 2 3 4" (一 二 三 四) in Chinese.
*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.
**It is most likely because monks originated from China.
*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Gold]]'' and ''[[Rhythm World]]'', during an [Eat three] section, the voice counts {{Nihongo|一 二 三 四|Yī èr sān sì}} in Chinese.
*The game is a parody on real ancient Monks, who (depending on the religion) starve themselves as part of their training, while here it's the opposite.
*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Gold]]'', the dumplings are instead referred to as {{Nihongo|[[wikipedia:Manjū|Manjū]]|まんじゅう|Manjū}}, a traditional Japanese confection.
*The dumplings are referred to as a bread called Manju in the Japanese version.
*This is the shortest game in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]], ''lasting 54 seconds, though it isn't the shortest game in the franchise. [[Showtime]] beats it by 7 seconds and [[Rhythm Rally]] by 12 seconds.
*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 [[Employee 333-4-591032|employee]] in [[Packing Pests]] bears a striking resemblance to the Munchy Monk. Notably, both games involve characters using their hands, and both involve food in some way.

*[[File:Muncy Monk Unused.png|thumb|right|The monk's face in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' including the off-screen ears and eyebrows.]]This one of the few games in [[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]] to receive a major overhaul in its visuals. The [[Munchy Monk (Character)|Munchy Monk]] himself is redesigned to match his appearance in the [[Munchy Monk (Wii)|Endless Game of the same name]], mainly in the presence of sleeves, as well as visible ears and eyebrows. The background is more detailed and is now animated. Due to ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]''<nowiki/>'s screen resolution, when translating the game to ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', there was an abundance of empty space on both sides, so the baby was added as a way to fill in the blanks. This is hinted at during the practice and beginning of the game where it seems like everything's the same as the original, until the monk slides to the left, revealing the formerly hidden baby. The left side shows off the handler's full arm, revealing sleeves like that of the monk.
*This is one of a few games to keep the same controls for tapping from ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' to ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' in Simple Tap Mode, the others being [[Fillbots 2|Fillbots]], [[Shoot-'em-up 2|Shoot-'Em-Up]], [[Freeze Frame]] and [[Lockstep]].

*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]].
*There is a character in [https://www.mariowiki.com/WarioWare,_Inc.:_Mega_Party_Game$! WarioWare Inc.: Mega Party Games] who bears a resemblance to the [[Munchy Monk (Character)|Munchy Monk]].[[File:58b828d3d1c30cdd69568593bae5ae0d.png|thumb|right]]

*This game appears in the "Wario...Where?" [[Challenge Train]], 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]].
*The hands which give you 3 dumplings are different between this & the sequel: In Munchy Monk, they look like paws. In Munchy Monk 2, they're normal hands. This also applies to the 3DS version.
**Due to their resemblance in terms of skin tone as well as the "3 dumpling" egg being a paw in the DS version, it's possible that the hands in the DS version were supposed to represent the [[Research Scientists of Love Lab]], although there's no in-universe confirmation.
* In the "Listen to Music" section of the [[Café]], the song is called ''Munchy Monk Theme''.
