RHYTHM HANDLE

RHYTHM HANDLE is a hammer module in BONK! The Mole Show, the pixel-art whack-a-mole roguelite.

Level 1

Every 6th BONK a wave spreads up the board from the struck hole (2 holes out) and BONKs the 2 nearest moles it meets.

Level 2

The wave reaches 3 holes.

Mutation A: DOUBLE WAVE

A second wave follows two steps behind, sharing the BONKs, and re-triggers one special the first one popped.

Mutation B: GRAND WAVE

Every 9th BONK. The wave reaches 5 holes and BONKs one extra mole in its far rings.

  • CHEER WAVE: The wave heals the Audience for every mole it reaches (up to 4%).

  • At Level 2 you choose its final form: DOUBLE WAVE or GRAND WAVE, or one of its 2 chemistry recipes.
  • Its BONKs count as the WAVE family.
  • It is in the base pool: it can be offered from your first run.
