Cosmic Rhythm Rally

Cosmic Rhythm Rally (コスモピンポン), known in Rhythm Heaven as Rhythm Rally 2 (ピンポン2), is the 36th minigame in Rhythm Heaven and the 87th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It is the arrange variant of Rhythm Rally 2. The song is extended, the ping-pong game takes place in outer space, and, in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the Paddlers are replaced with Cosmo Dancers.

Gameplay
The gameplay lasts longer and is more fast paced in comparison with Rhythm Heaven 's Rhythm Rally or Rhythm Heaven Megamix 's Rhythm Rally 2. The camera is not always facing the opponent, unlike in the first two Rhythm Rally games; it moves constantly and blocks their view, with the objective of causing them to rely more on the rhythm of the ball's bounces. There is also a new move called the high-speed rally, which is cued by eight cowbell sounds, each of them half a beat apart. It is a faster variant of the regular rally and lasts for two measures. There is also a planet that sometimes blocks the view.

Skill Star
The Skill Star can be collected at the end of the second high-speed rally.
