==Description==

After the player gets past the [[Introduction]], the first rhythm game is available to play. These games can be played with buttons (or sometimes tap controls) to the beat of the music, the timing depending on each game. Most games allow the player to [[Practice]] before diving into the real thing, which can be skipped. The player can pause the game and quit at any time. In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', they also have the option to start over, instead of quitting and reopening the game all over again.

In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', rhythm games are part of the story, where the player and [[Tibby]] must clear them in order to restore the flow to each Land and Tower they visit. The player's flow serves as a mark of progress in this game, and is integral to the story<ref>"As you play through the story of Rhythm Heaven Megamix... we would like to show you the importance of one thing. That thing is "Flow." I'm going to step out for a moment to make some coffee..." ~ Narrator, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. It does not get calculated based on the player's recent performance, instead it simply shows the player's average score across all rhythm games. It also impacts the difficulty in [[Figure Fighter VS]]. There are 18 rhythm games available only in the [[Shop]], where they can only be purchased with [[Flow Ball]]s. Playing all games is commemorated with a [[Badge]].

==Versions==

Some rhythm games have modified versions. While these are not given a catch-all name within the games, for the purposes of the {{SITENAME}}, these are dubbed "versions", derived from internal data in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', where the graphics files for these are stored in folders labeled "ver0", "ver1" and so on, or "ver_long", "ver_arrange" and such. The internal data for ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' is used to label the following versions as such:

*{{Nihongo|Short}}: Shortened versions of rhythm games found in [[Honeybee Land]], [[Machine Land]], [[Citrus Land]] and [[Barbershop Land]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. These feature completely new music and appearances for the games, and a lower difficulty.
