A new generation of Bonk has been introduced in the form of cyborg Air Zonk. Air Zonk replaced Bonk as the mascot for Turbo products, sporting sunglasses and a "cooler" look. The game itself was not an adventure game like Bonk games, but was a shooter, one of many for the TurboGrafx-16. Much more cartoony than most shooters, Air Zonk could summon wacky friends that also wore sunglasses to come to his aid. Trivia: The original title for Air Zonk was "Bonk's Thunder Shooting."

The Evil King Drool has sent forth powerful cyber robots to carry out his evil designs. But a team of cool, sunglass-wearing warriors lead by Zonk have discovered his plot and have risen against him. In hopes of defeating this team, King Drool sends wave after wave of terrible cyber robots. But by combining their power, Zonk and his friends can destroy even the worst of the cyber robots. Get ready! The fight is about to begin!
