Monkey Watch (さる時計?, Saru Tokei) is the ninth game in Rhythm Heaven Fever. The game is about a new type of wrist watch called the monkey watch that is being worn on someone's wrist during the game. Getting a perfect on Monkey Watch earns the gift 'Ad Copy'.
Gameplay
A monkey (the character played in this game) is holding onto the watch's clock hand. As the hand is ticking around the clock, other monkeys will come out to greet the main monkey with a high-five to represent the time change on the wrist watch. The monkey hanging onto the clock hand must high-five back. On occasion, two consecutive pink monkeys will appear instead of yellow ones, cued by an "Oookii oook-ook!" sound. These act as offbeats, making the player tap A twice to high-five both monkeys before going back to the regular beat.
The clock hand makes two-and-a-half rotations around the watch in the duration of the song. As it progresses, the games obscures the visuals; quarter-way through the second rotation and at the end of the song, the screen zooms out to show the wholewatch on a man's arm (also showing a monkey face in the middle of it), making it much harder to see the monkeys. After the first zoom-out, a monkey in a balloon will start flying around waving at the screen; this can completely cover up the monkeys as you try to high-five them.
Controls
A = Swing Hand (High-five monkeys)
Hit or Miss
- Hit: The clock hand monkey will successfully high-five the watch monkeys, making them cheer.
- Barely: The clock hand monkey will only slightly hive-five the watch monkeys. The regular monkeys will have a frown on their face, while pink monkeys will have a slight smile. A barely counts as a miss in this game.
- Miss: The clock hand monkey fails to high-five the watch monkeys, making them hang their heads in shame.
Rating Notes
- Try Again: I'm so sorry I'm late! It was the monkeys' fault!
- Ok:
- Superb: This is without a doubt the cutest watch I've ever owned.
Appearances
Trivia
