Beat the Grand Ringmaster with the Audience full and the momentum in FEVER: the crowd chants for an encore. Beat the Shadow Ringmaster.

How to find it, step by step

  1. Reach the Grand Ringmaster, the boss of ROYAL GRAND FAIR.
  2. Deliver his final BONK with the Audience meter FULL and momentum in FEVER.
  3. Instead of the victory the crowd shouts ONE MORE! and the Shadow Ringmaster takes the stage.
  4. Shadows of your own special moles hunt the hammer one column per row: break them with reactions (chains), never with the direct strike (a direct strike gets STOLEN, -3 Audience).
  5. Win: the true ending credits play and you get the Shadow Mallet. Losing the encore still counts as the Royal win.

Reward

The true ending and the Shadow Mallet.

Tips

  • Save a healing piece or a big chain for the last phase of the Ringmaster so the meter is full at the right moment.

In-game hint

The Royal crowd sometimes wants one more...
