==Gameplay==
[[File:Donk-Donk_gameplay.png|thumb]]In this game, a caller repeats the words "Donk-Donk" and the A button must be pressed on each syllable. The caller will then say "Donk-Dwonk" in the same rhythm, but after it is called, the rhythm will switch to pressing A to the syllables of the caller's "Deet-Deet-Doh", which will be a triplet, until the caller yells out "Deet-Deet-Doot", and the rhythm returns to the "Donk-Donk" pattern.

In this game, [[The Donkers]] are flying a blimp across the sky, switching between two distinct rhythms. The three tuning-fork-esque figures strike each other in rhythm to power the blimp, with the player controlling the figure in the middle. A voice calls out as a signal for which rhythm is currently being followed:
*{{Nihongo|"Donk donk"|コンコン|Kon-kon}}: Two quick notes, followed by a rest. The driving/basic rhythm. The blimp moves slowly.
*{{Nihongo|"Deet-deet-dah"|カンカンカー|Kan-kan-ka}}: Three quick notes, or a triplet. The accelerated/faster rhythm. The blimp moves faster with a gust of wind blowing by.
*{{Nihongo|"Donk-DWONK!"/"donk dwan"|コンカーン|Kon-kan}}: Signals a rhythm change to "deet-deet-dah".
*{{Nihongo|"Deet-deet-doot"/"dit dit do"|ケンキンクン|Ken-kin-kun}}: Signals a rhythm change to "donk donk".
The blimp flies around the sky, above pink clouds with light green flowers poking out of them, and a sun shining in the back. The blimp briefly rises up to a starry part of the sky, then through a patch of pink clouds. At the end, the blimp blasts off towards [[Rhythm Heaven (location)|Rhythm Heaven]] in the background.

==Timing Notes==
==[[Timing Display]]==
*Hit: The player figure follows the rhythm in right time with the other two. The ship that they are flying also bounces by a small amount.
{{Timing
*Barely: The player figure wobbles after following the rhythm incorrectly. '''A barely counts as a miss'''.
|just=The player follows the rhythm in time with the other two. The ship bounces by a small amount.
*Miss: The figures gulp and start to sweat slightly when the rhythm isn't followed.
|miss=The player goes off the beat and wobbles as a result.
==Rating Notes==
|through=The player messes up the rhythm, causing the figures to gulp and sweat slightly. If this happens at the very end, the blimp falls down.}}

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Donk-Donk is generally considered to be one of the most bizarre games in the entire franchise because of its absurd appearance and lack of explanation. This is commented on in the game's North American description, which is unable to describe it, stating that it is "hard to explain".
*The [[Endless Game]] [[Lady Cupid]] appears to take place in a similar environment as this game.
**Not only is its concept rather peculiar, but Donk-Donk is the only game in Rhythm Heaven Fever to be measured in triple time.
==Development History==
*During the Japanese version of the game, there is a "You" label on the rocket, underneath the player figure. In other versions this label doesn't appear outside of practice.
*The characters of Donk-Donk are referred to as "[[Uh... these guys?]]" in the North American version of the credits and "The donk-donkers" in the European version.
{{Lang
*The endless game [[Lady Cupid]] appears to take place in the same environment as the ending of Donk-Donk.
|jp=コンコンズ
*Donk-Donk takes place outside of [[Rhythm Heaven (location)|Rhythm Heaven]], as the castle can be seen in the background near the end of the minigame.
|rojp=Konkonzu
*Both the English and Japanese names are onomatopoeias.
|mnjp=Konkons
*In the Japanese version, the primary vocal cue is "kon-kon," while in the English version, it's "donk-donk." This is due to the minigame's name in each version.

* Donk-Donk is one of the four minigames from ''Fever'' that did not make it into [[Rhythm Heaven Megamix|''Megamix'']], the others being [[Tap Troupe]], [[Shrimp Shuffle]], and [[Tambourine]].

In this game, The Donkers are flying a blimp across the sky, switching between two distinct rhythms. The three tuning-fork-esque figures strike each other in rhythm to power the blimp, with the player controlling the figure in the middle. A voice calls out as a signal for which rhythm is currently being followed:
"Donk donk" (コンコン?, Kon-kon): Two quick notes, followed by a rest. The driving/basic rhythm. The blimp moves slowly.
"Deet-deet-dah" (カンカンカー?, Kan-kan-ka): Three quick notes, or a triplet. The accelerated/faster rhythm. The blimp moves faster with a gust of wind blowing by.
"Donk-DWONK!"/"donk dwan" (コンカーン?, Kon-kan): Signals a rhythm change to "deet-deet-dah".
"Deet-deet-doot"/"dit dit do" (ケンキンクン?, Ken-kin-kun): Signals a rhythm change to "donk donk".
The blimp flies around the sky, above pink clouds with light green flowers poking out of them, and a sun shining in the back. The blimp briefly rises up to a starry part of the sky, then through a patch of pink clouds. At the end, the blimp blasts off towards Rhythm Heaven in the background.
