Like previous titles, the game features various levels with their own set of rules, requiring the player to play in time to the rhythm in order to clear them. These levels range from stabbing peas with a fork, to attacking evil spirits with a sword and playing badminton in midair. Unlike the previous game, ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', which utilized the features of the Nintendo DS, ''Rhythm Heaven Fever'' for the Wii is limited to button controls. The game is played with the Wii Remote held vertically, with players required to either tap the A button, or squeeze the A and B buttons together. At the end of each level, players are ranked on their performance, with at least an 'OK' rank required to clear the level and progress onto the next. Each set of levels culminates in a Remix stage, which combines all the gameplay elements of the previous levels in one stage. | Like previous titles, the game features various levels with their own set of rules, requiring the player to play in time to the rhythm in order to clear them.

New to the series (bar the arcade version of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'') is a multiplayer mode, in which two players can play simultaneously. Levels played in multiplayer require players to earn enough points in total to reach the desired rank and clear each stage, with bonus points awarded based on the harmony of the players. These can sometimes result in the rank going from an 'OK' to a 'Superb'.<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/somj/norinori/index.html</ref> These levels come with their own set of medals which can unlock multiplayer minigames.
