I bought this watch recently
because it stood out from
the rest. You have to read
the manual to learn how to
tell the time, though.

　Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Monkey Watch (さる時計^?, Saru Tokei) is the 4th Rhythm Game of the second stage (9th overall) in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 2nd of Shop No. 6 (107th overall), costing 10 Flow Balls, in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Gameplay

In order to operate the monkey watch itself, the player controls a Small Monkey holding onto the watch's hand. As the hand is ticks around the clock, other monkeys come out to greet the main monkey with a high-five to represent the time change on the wrist watch. On occasion, two consecutive pink monkeys appear instead of yellow ones, cued by an "Oookii oook-ook!" sound. These act as offbeats.

In the middle of the game, the screen zooms out to show the whole watch on a man's arm (also showing a monkey face in the middle), making it much harder to see the monkeys. After this, a monkey in a balloon appears, flying around waving at the screen.

Controls

Monkey Watch	Wait, What Time Is It?
File:Sprite 3DS Rhythm Item Monkey Watch item.png.png	My parents bought me a monkey watch when I started high school. The monkeys are so cute that I forget about time and just stare at them. Kind of useless as a watch, isn't it?

Skill Star

The Skill Star appears on the six offbeat monkeys near the end of the game.

Trivia

The Monkey Watch gets referenced in "A Musical Term", where Mr. Upbeat is talking to one about his problems^[1].
- Monkey Watch is also mentioned in Bossa Nova at one point in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise^[2].
The song for this game appears in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U on the Miiverse stage and in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, where it plays on stages in the "Other" category.
In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the particles that come out when the monkeys high-five are stars instead of smack symbols. Due to this, the purple monkey's particles no longer fall off-screen.
