NEST

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

Level 1

When bonked, hatches baby moles 2 rows AHEAD: your column and both neighbours. Babies are normal moles, and a baby that gets away costs nothing.

Hatches a fourth baby, 3 rows ahead.

Babies crawl toward the special moles.

A hatched baby can grow into a new Nest.

Chemistry recipe	With	Effect
CLUSTER HATCH	BOMB	Hatched babies are tiny bombs: when popped they BONK the moles next to them.
GOLDEN BROOD	GOLD	A Nest may hatch a golden baby: it pays Golden.
POPCORN	UPPERCUT	A Nest popped in your Uppercut column makes its babies jump up rows and BONK a neighbour when they land.
NURSERY ROW	FIRECRACKER STRING	When a domino wave hits a gap, a baby hatches in it and the row keeps toppling.
BROOD CHORUS	TUNING FORK	Babies hum too: bonk one and every baby on the board rings. Each baby popped by the hum hatches a new one.
LITTER TAP	DOUBLE TAP	A Nest popped by your hammer gets tapped again: 2 of the babies it hatches are BONKed at once.
BABY BREAD	BAKER	Every litter goes in the oven: each time a Nest hatches, the Baker bakes a fresh loaf (up to 2 per chain).

CLUSTER HATCH: One hatched baby can grow straight into a new Nest.
GOLDEN BROOD: Popping the golden baby pays a bonus on the chain that hatched it.
POPCORN: The babies jump a second time and pop again.
NURSERY ROW: Every baby also leaves one more in the row above: the next row arrives as a ready-made domino line.
BROOD CHORUS: NEST CHOIR: when the babies hum, every Nest on the board is BONKed and hatches.
LITTER TAP: Up to 4 babies are tapped.
BABY BREAD: 2 loaves per hatch, up to 4 per chain.

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: SWARM or RECURSIVE, or one of its 7 chemistry recipes.
Its BONKs count as the NORMALS family.
It is in the base pool: it can be offered from your first run.
