The icon for the Cluck-A-Pop prize "Admiral Venture Clock".

Adventure King Clock is one of the Cluck-A-Pop prizes in Game & Wario. The prize simply involves an in-game clock being displayed in the upper left corner, accompanied by occasional quotes from the Adventure King, who guides the player through the Pirates minigame. According to the prize's description, the Adventure King has become trapped within the stone, which has caused him to develop "an uncanny sense of the passage of time", allowing the player to use him as a clock.

Possible quotes from the Adventure King include the following:

  • "Ahoy! It is I, the Adventure King! I will be forever by your side.
  • "Don't forget to forget to eat your vegetables!"
  • "Hey! Want to hear about an amazing adventure?! Oh, you don't... OK then."
  • "How old am I? As many years as there are hairs in my beard."
  • "I could so eat an entire tub of pudding right now."
  • "I'm so bored."
  • "My beard has been so itchy lately! Maybe I'll take a shower this year."
  • "Please leave me alone."
  • "Please wash that potato-chip grease off your hands before touching me!"
  • "Shoot! I forgot to brush my teeth. Oh well. There's always next week."
  • "There's nothing funny about dancing pirates. Nothing!"
  • "What good is a burger without cheese? No good! Cheese or bust!"
  • "What's my favorite food? Cheeseburgers!"
  • "Where have you been?! I was feeling so alone."
  • "Why am I called the Adventure King? No, really, why? Someone please tell me!"
  • "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something in my beard?"
  • "Why did the bug go to culinary school? Because it was a cookroach!"
  • "You rang? Oh, you didn't? Never mind."

The stone tablet the Adventure King is trapped in also appears in the 15th Mona Superscoop, which reveals that the Adventure King was cursed by Captain Wario and remained stuck in the stone even after Captain Wario's defeat.

In-game description[edit]

  • "I am the Adventure King! Due to unforeseen circumstances, I am trapped inside this stone. I make a great shield, but that doesn't seem very useful to you at the moment... Ah! Being stuck in here has given me an uncanny sense of the passage of time. You can use me as a clock! I'm sure to make quite the handsome addition to any room."
