Like previous titles, the game features various [[Rhythm Games]] each with their own rules, requiring the player to play in time to the rhythm in order to clear them. Unlike the previous game, ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', which utilized the features of the [[wikipedia:Nintendo DS|Nintendo DS]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' for the [[wikipedia:Wii|Wii]] is limited to button controls. The game is played with the Wii Remote held vertically, with players required to either tap Ⓐ, or "squeeze" Ⓐ+Ⓑ together. At the end of each game, players are [[Rank]]ed on their performance, with at least an "[[OK]]" rank required to clear it and progress onto the next. Each stage of four games culminates in a [[Remix]], which combines all the gameplay elements of the previous games in one.

Clearing levels with a [[Superb]] earns [[Medal]]s which unlock extra content in the [[Medal Corner]], including [[Rhythm Toys]], [[Endless Games]] and [[Extra Games]] from the original ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''. Levels that have been cleared with a [[Superb]] may also be randomly selected for a [[Perfect Campaign]], in which the player can try to clear the game without missing, with the maximum of 3 retries before it disappears. Clearing these rewards [[Gift]]s such as [[Music Corner#Rhythm Heaven Fever|songs]] and [[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven Fever)|Reading Material]].

New to the series (bar the [[Rhythm Tengoku/Arcade|arcade version of ''Rhythm Tengoku'']]) is the [[Two-Player Menu]], 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 game, with bonus points awarded based on the harmony of the players. These can sometimes result in the rank going from [[OK]] to [[Superb]]. These games come with [[Duo Medal]]s which unlock [[Two-Player Endless Games]].

==Development and Localization==
==[[Rhythm Games]]==
Producer Yoshio Sakamoto and Nintendo SPD Group No.1 were responsible for the programming, graphic design, and some of the music in the game. Collaborator and musician [[wikipedia:Tsunku|Tsunku]] and his music studio TNX created several of the performed vocal songs found throughout the game. In the localized versions of the game, the [[Endless Game]] [[Manzai]] was removed due to the dialogue focused nature of the game and replaced with another from ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' known as [[Mr. Upbeat]]<ref>[http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/rhythmheavenfever/0/3 Iwata Asks - Rhythm Heaven Fever 4.

Rhythm Heaven Fever (みんなのリズムてんごく?, Minna no Rhythm Tengoku), known as Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise in Europe, and Rhythm World Wii[1] (리듬 세상 Wii?, Rhythm Sesang Wii) in Korea, is the third game in the Rhythm Heaven Series, released for the Wii on July 21, 2011 in Japan, February 13, 2012 in North America, July 6, 2012 in Europe, September 13, 2012 in Australia and September 12, 2013 in South Korea.

The game was digitally rereleased on the Wii U Nintendo eShop on July 27, 2016 in Japan, November 10, 2016 in North America, and November 24 in Europe. As the Nintendo eShop closed in March of 2023, this version can no longer be purchased.

Gameplay

Like previous titles, the game features various Rhythm Games each with their own rules, requiring the player to play in time to the rhythm in order to clear them. 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 Ⓐ, or "squeeze" Ⓐ+Ⓑ together. At the end of each game, players are Ranked on their performance, with at least an "OK" rank required to clear it and progress onto the next. Each stage of four games culminates in a Remix, which combines all the gameplay elements of the previous games in one.

Much like previous entries, clearing levels with a Superb earns Medals which unlock extra content in the Medal Corner, including Rhythm Toys, Endless Games and Extra Games from the original Rhythm Tengoku. Games that have been cleared with a Superb may also be randomly selected for a Perfect Campaign, in which the player can try to clear the game without missing, with a maximum of three retries before it disappears. Clearing these rewards Gifts such as music and something to read.

Returning from the arcade version of Rhythm Tengoku is the Two-Player Menu, 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 game, with bonus points awarded based on the harmony between them. These games come with Duo Medals which unlock Two-Player Endless Games.
