Glass Tappers

Glass Tappers is an endless subgame that can be unlocked in Rhythm Heaven for 22 Medals. It features four bartenders, or waiters, who each have a wine glass in front of them in which they tap them in a certain rhythm. The player plays as the youngest looking man with a pink bow tie who is last in line of the four.

Gameplay

In this endless subgame, the player must copy what the leading bartender taps onto his glass. After he finishes his routine, a blue haired man with glasses follows him on, and an elderly man follows him on. Once the three have followed each other off, the player must then copy what they did.

If the player is follows the rhythm on properly, the spectating character will cheer the men on. If the player fails, the spectating character will lose interest in the men. If the player manages to follow the rhythm properly, they will regain the character's interest, but not fully. If the player fails to follow the rhythm while the character has lost interest, the character is revealed to have left the bar, resulting in a Game Over.

Progressing

The subgame starts off with the four bartenders attempting to console a sad young woman. As the player gets a higher score, more and more interesting characters make an appearance to marvel at the four men as well as the subgame's tempo increasing.

• Pass 6 points: A green alien in a pink dress appears.
• Pass 13 points: A robot appears.
• Pass 21 points: A woman with towering red hair appears.

Also, in the practice session, an anthropomorphic white bear in a suit judges the performance of the player.
