Bonk/YMMV

Breather Level: The first level of area four of Super Bonk is just Bonk drifting around in space looking for the Hatchet's base. The only thing that can hurt him is this level is the sun (which you would have to let Bonk drop to the bottom of the screen for it to hurt him), and there are a few health upgrades strewn about.
- All of Super Bonk is easier compared to the previous games
Contested Sequel: While fans differ on which Bonk game is considered the best, most considered Bonk 3 the weakest entry in the series.
Goddamned Bats: The piranhas will latch on to you and slowly drain your health until you shake them off. Also, any enemy that can swallow you whole, forcing you to play through a small level every time just to get out.
Harsher in Hindsight: The teaser for Brink of Extinction showed Bonk trying to create fire, only for a meteor to obliterate Bonk (and the Earth as well). Now it seems to sum up what ultimately became of the game. See What Could Have Been below.
Hilarious in Hindsight: Just try to mention the name of this series without someone bringing up Team Fortress 2.
- One of the Scout's trademark lines is "I'm gonna headbutt ya! I'm gonna headbutt ya!" Guess what Bonk's main form of attack is.
Nightmare Fuel: In the last level of Bonk's Revenge, there are dinosaur corpses hanging on hooks. If Bonk walks near them, they fall to the ground and their ghosts come out and attack Bonk.
That One Boss: That ballerina boss in area 3 of Bonk's Revenge.
