ARMORED

ARMORED is a special mole in BONK! The Mole Show, the pixel-art whack-a-mole roguelite.

Level 1

Needs TWO BONKs. The first cracks its helmet, which bursts into SHRAPNEL that BONKs the 4 moles around it.

Level 2

Shrapnel also flies diagonally: all 8 moles around it. The crowd cheers when it cracks: Audience and Momentum.

Mutation A: PINATA ARMOR

Breaking the helmet drops mini targets around it.

Mutation B: REACTIVE ARMOR

The first indirect hit cracks the helmet and bounces off to another mole.

Resonance

  • CAN OPENER: The helmet is a saw blade: it bounces on to up to 2 more targets.
  • SHATTER CHORUS: SHRAPNEL: every Armored mole the chorus pops bursts in a plus-shaped blast that BONKs its neighbours.
  • SURGE PROTECTOR: Every released hit also throws a spark at a nearby mole.

Tips

  • A special mole takes one of your 4 mole slots; once owned it starts appearing among the normal moles.
  • At Level 2 you choose its final form: PINATA ARMOR or REACTIVE ARMOR, or one of its 3 chemistry recipes.
  • Its BONKs count as the EXPLOSIVE family.
  • It is in the base pool: it can be offered from your first run.
