NORMALS

NORMALS is one of the nine families of BONK!; 18 pieces pay under it.

Every piece pays under one of nine families: electric, explosive, fire, gold, normals, projectile, wave, echo or fair (the fair-rule prizes).

Hammers (4)

DOUBLE TAPEvery hit is followed by a second BONK one row up, in the same column.
WIDE HEADEvery BONK also hits a neighbouring hole (the juiciest side).
MIRROR HEADEvery BONK is mirrored into the symmetric column and snaps to the nearest mole there. Only pops normal moles.
REAPER HEADEvery BONK also sweeps its row: every NORMAL mole in it is BONKed. Specials are left alone.

Moles (3)

NESTWhen bonked, hatches baby moles 2 rows AHEAD: your column and both neighbours. Babies are normal moles, and a baby that gets away costs nothing.
BAKERBakes a fresh normal mole 1-3 rows ahead every row while it lives (up to 8). BONK it to pop 2 of them in a chain. Baked moles that escape cost half.
HARVESTERBONK it to CASH every normal mole on screen for points and XP. No chain, no escapes.

Prizes (3)

LUCKY HORSESHOEEvery 6 normal moles popped, a normal in your column or next to it (next 3 rows) turns into one of your specials. 3 in a row without escapes: the next is golden.
DIEHARD FANSPlain moles pay x2.5 score and x2 XP and win back a little Audience. Every 25 fill the fan meter: a FAN WAVE BONKs up to 8 normals in two rows.
OVERDRIVEHit 10 holes in a row and your next strike fires every hammer module twice.

Chemistry (8)

POPCORNA Nest popped in your Uppercut column makes its babies jump up rows and BONK a neighbour when they land.
NURSERY ROWWhen a domino wave hits a gap, a baby hatches in it and the row keeps toppling.
BROOD CHORUSBabies hum too: bonk one and every baby on the board rings. Each baby popped by the hum hatches a new one.
FARM TO TABLEEvery Reaper sweep also serves the Baker's loaves: the 2 nearest baked moles outside the swept rows get BONKed.
SLOW RISEEvery golden-marked mole you pop makes the Baker bake an extra loaf (3 per chain).
GLEANINGWhile the Spotlight is lit, every strike also cuts the normal moles of the lit column (up to 5).
LITTER TAPA Nest popped by your hammer gets tapped again: 2 of the babies it hatches are BONKed at once.
BABY BREADEvery litter goes in the oven: each time a Nest hatches, the Baker bakes a fresh loaf (up to 2 per chain).
