==={{DQH}} & {{DQH2}}===
Kathwack appears as [[Kiryl]]'s Coup-de-Grâce, carrying over from ''[[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road]]''. After trying and failing to cast Thwack multiple times, Kiryl becomes annoyed and stomps on the text windows in frustration, before casting a souped-up version of Kathwack, which annihilates groups of enemies with waves of darkness. This version of Kathwack causes damage, rather than instant death. This references Kiryl's AI in the NES version of ''Dragon Quest IV'', where Kiryl would infamously cast the Whack and Thwack spells constantly in battle to no effect.
