'''Mr. Tick-Tock''' is a [[Mid-Boss]] debuting in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. His appearance is that of a red, anthropomorphic alarm clock with golden bells on top of him. He possesses two white, gloved hands at the end of his short, blue arms, a pair of blue feet and a peach colored face with two eyes, angry looking eyebrows and a round, red nose with a mustache below it.

In ''Kirby's Adventure'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Mr. Tick-Tock is encountered in various areas throughout the game and among the few Mid-Bosses that are not fought in any of the [[Arena (Kirby's Adventure)|Arenas]]. He possesses two main forms of attacking: He either marches towards [[Kirby]], stopping and beginning to ring and emit harmful soundwaves when he reaches him, or he rings while keeping at a distance, which causes four large notes to be launched into the air at different angles that Kirby can inhale and spit at the Mid-Boss to hurt him. Mr. Tick-Tock yields the [[Mike]] [[Copy Ability]] when inhaled and swallowed after his defeat.

===''Kirby Super Star Ultra''===
Mr. Tick-Tock reappears in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', an enhanced remake of ''[[Kirby Super Star|{{KSS KFP}}]]'', although he is not found in the original game. Here, the Mid-Boss behaves the same as in ''Kirby's Adventure'' and yields the same ability, but is fought considerably more rarely throughout the game. He is primarily encountered in the [[Revenge of the King]] stage, being found in a hidden room in the [[Illusion Islands]] area, as well as the final area of the stage, [[The Revenge]], where he is blue instead of red. Outside of this stage, his only other appearance is in [[The True Arena]], where he is fought as part of the "True Mid-Boss All-Stars". In both The Revenge and The True Arena, he is the first of four mid-bosses fought.
