In this game, the player controls one of [[The Three Synchrettes]], who are performing synchronized swimming to the beat. The player must follow the sequence in rhythm, diving underwater and surfacing again after the first two synchrettes. At certain points, they jump out of the water while riding dolphins. These jumps occur either in sequence or together after an "Ooooh" cue. Near the end, two jumps have the three girls throw three other girls into the air instead, revealing there are actually six synchrettes in all.

Near the end, two jumps have the three girls throw three other girls into the air instead, revealing there are actually six synchrettes in all.
