Tap Troupe

"With taps on their shoes and boxes on their heads, this quartet dreams of stardom. We understand the taps, but the head boxes...?"

- Tap Troupe Description

Tap Troupe (タップスター tapu suta "tap star") is a game about a Tall Tapper, (you) auditioning for the Tap Troupe, a tap dancing group.

Gameplay
In this game, the player controls the fourth Tall Tapper in line (far right), with their face being visible near the bottom-left of the screen. When the game starts, the members of the troupe will start stepping at a steady beat. The player needs to step along with them. At certain parts of the game, a voice will say "Rea-dy!", and the tappers get on their toes and continue tapping. When this happens, the speed of tapping increases. After a while, a voice will say "Tap, tap, tap!", requiring the player to tap on those beats, then go back the the original beat.

Hit or Miss

 * Hit: The Tall Tappers continue their routine. After the female voice's complex tap cues, the Tall Tappers will gleefully yell out "Okay!". Additionally, halfway through the game the Tall Tapper on the left of the group will bring out a confetti popper which launches confetti. During the last few moments of the rhythm game, the Tall Tappers will wave their arms up with their hands in an OK sign.
 * Barely: The other Tall Tappers will glare at the player, annoyed. During the tutorial, they just glance over at the player.
 * Miss: The other Tall Tappers will make a pouty face at the player's tapper. During the tutorial, they just glance over at the player.

Two-Player Mode
A version of the game can be unlocked in the two player mode. It is the seventh game in it, and requires the completion on the original game and the previous two-player game, Launch Party.

The game has the first player on the far right, wearing blue shoes, and the second player on the left, wearing orange shoes. Both players have to tap along with the other two tappers. There is no main differences from the main game's pattern, other that spotlights at certain times to obscure view.

Trivia

 * The Tall Tappers' box-headed, human-like appearance makes them look similar to the dancers from Rhythm Tengoku 's Space Dance and the Paddlers from Rhythm Heaven 's Rhythm Rally.
 * In the reading material you receive by perfecting this game, the troupe's leader is implied to be the leader of the Space Dancers, further making the connection between them.
 * The game's base play style, with four characters stepping to a beat, makes it similar to Rhythm Tengoku's Marcher.
