Tick-Tock Jr. (originally referred to as Tic tac Jr.[1]) is a character in both versions of Kirby's Star Stacker. He appears in the Time Attack mode of the games.

Characteristics

Tick-Tock Jr., just like Mr. Tick-Tock, is a sentient alarm clock. He has two white floating hands, red feet and two golden bells on top of it. Unlike Mr. Tick-Tock, however, Tick-Tock Jr. has a more relaxed expression rather than a angry one. Notably, he didn't had feet in the Game Boy version of Kirby's Star Stacker.

Personality

Tick-Tock Jr., unlike his Mid-Boss counterpart, is very relaxed and sleepy, as shown by his idle animations and artwork. When pausing the game, Tick-Tock Jr. will even sleep, showing his somnolent nature. If blocks are still falling after time is up, Tick-Tock Jr. will start ringing and get angry.

Trivia

  • Tick-Tock Jr. will sleep if the game is paused for too long.
