About
Nick is an astronaut toy and doll who took his helmet off in space.

Appearance
Nick is a short and skinny lime-colored toy and doll that wears a light gray spacesuit and a cyan space helmet which he takes off.

Videos
Nick is seen (with a head) that he has taken off his helmet, his head expands, chokes his neck and then explodes in a burst of pinkish-red blood. With his eyes in her hands, he is a Tertiary Dancer in the chorus and he's in the third verse in the song, along with Clyde, Dawn, and Bebe.

Gamese
Nick can be unlocked for the player's Train Station at the score 2600 in the kid version and at the total score of 1280000 in the new version. In both versions, he is the 14th character to arrive at the train station, and in the new version, he is the 78th thing that can be unlocked.

Unlock at 96800 accumulated score

Introduced in the app in August 2014, the minigame aims to guide Nick back to his helmet by tilting the device. If he reaches the helmet, he will put it on and give the player a thumbs up. Otherwise, he will reach the same messy end from the loading screen and the video: his head explodes.


 * Smashteroids

Unlock at 1065800 accumulated score

Nick has another minigame that involves touching the screen to destroy the asteroids. If the player lets an asteroid hit him, he will be crushed in between two asteroids and his head will explode again, resulting in failure. If the player successfully destroys all the asteroids, he will safely ride the asteroid, holding a lasso.

Guide the astronaut back to his helmet!
