The games in Honeybee Land, Machine Land, Citrus Land and Barbershop Land are shorter variants of the original games with new music and visuals. They take the original name and description of the games, while the actual original games are given new names, which in English often coincide with the Arrange games in previous installments.

After the Lush Tower is cleared, the credits roll and Tibby attempts to return to Heaven World, only to crash back down. Some "powered-up" [[Rhythm Games]] also become available. The games in Honeybee Tower, Machine Tower, Citrus Tower and Barbershop Tower are actually the original games, but were renamed as the short variants in the respective lands take on the original name.
After [[Tibby]] and the player clear [[Lush Tower]], [[Tibby]] tries to use it’s power to return to [[Heaven World]], but it is not enough. [[Trey]] informs him that they need a rainbow of power for that, after which the six towers appear. [[Tibby]] and the player are allowed to tackle them in any order they wish. The short versions from the lands return as "powered-up" [[Rhythm Games]], which are the original versions, but renamed to avoid confusion. Many of their names and descriptions now coincide with their arrange versions, however.

While most [[Rhythm Games|games]] returned in Megamix, 24 didn't make the cut. The following are the games from past installments of ''Rhythm Heaven'' that did not return for ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix''. (Arrange games whose normal variant is in ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix'' are written in '''bold'''. Remixes, Endless Games, [[File:TempoUpExtra1.png|72px]] Games, and Two-Player Games aren't listed.) Many of these Arrange games have new patterns or new cues, which also exist in ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix'', but are never used. It is debatable how many of these were actually intended to appear in the game or were simply leftover data from the porting process.
