Rhythm Heaven Fever
N/A
Rhythm Heaven Megamix (リズム天国 ザ・ベストプラス?, Rhythm Tengoku: The Best Plus), also known as Rhythm Paradise Megamix in Europe, and Rhythm World: The Best Plus (리듬 세상 더 베스트 플러스?, Lideum Sesang Deo Beseuteu Peulleoseu) in Korea, is the 4th game in the Rhythm Heaven Series. It was released on June 11th, 2015 in Japan; June 16th, 2016 in the west during the E3 announcement; October 21st, 2016 in Europe; October 22nd, 2016 in Australia; and on December 1st, 2016 in South Korea.
This game includes 63 Rhythm Games from the previous three Rhythm Heaven games (18 of previous ones are located at the shop), 19 new ones, 12 "short" ones, 4 Endless Games, and 10 Remixes, making for a total of 108 games in all.
Main Game
In the single player mode of the game, the player helps a character named Tibby get back to Heaven World 天の国 (Ten no Kuni, a pun on 天国 tengoku?) (mispelled as "Hevven World" by Tibby) by completing various rhythm games and restoring the flow. On his way, he meets various characters, such as Boondog, Dieter, Shep, Donna, Hairold, Eglantine, Trey, Bertram, Betty, & Philip, who guide him through their various lands; as well as the Gatekeeper Trio, which consists of Saffron, Saltwater, and Paprika.
Challenge Land
Challenge Land is a new feature in Megamix. It becomes playable once the player clears the Lush Tower. It also allows up to 4 players, either through Local Multiplayer or Download Play. When clearing the course for the first time, Flow Balls are rewarded to players to spend it at Café. Those playing through Download Play cannot receive rewards, and are instead encouraged to purchase the full game.
Perfect Campaign
Perfect Campaign returns in Rhythm Heaven Megamix and up to 3 attempts are allowed before receiving the perfect. However, unlike from previous games in the series, some minor changes were made. Needing to navigate to the Rhythm Game where the Campaign is no longer necessary, as it can be accessed directly through the booth at Challenge Land. If the player missed during the attempt, the game ends with the message "You Missed..." instead of continuing like a normal game. After a "perfect" is obtained, the player no longer receives music or Reading Material; instead, each Perfect Campaign awards one Flow Ball, which can used to purchase Rhythm Items, Music, or Rhythm Games at the Shop.
List of Rhythm Games
The majority of games appear over the course of the story, where they are grouped into Stages of four; one from Rhythm Tengoku, one from Rhythm Heaven, one from Rhythm Heaven Fever, and one new. All towers have a Remix at the end as well.
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.

The games at Mamarin Palace are like the Arrange games from previous titles. Karate Man Senior notably doesn't fit into this category.

From the Shop
Saffron's Shop allows the player to purchase Rhythm Items, Music and Rhythm Games. All games in the Shop are returning from previous games in the series. Some of them can be played on the Challenge Train even before they are bought.

File:Packing Pests 3DS.PNG | File:Monkey Watch 3DS.PNG | File:Karate Man Combo.PNG |
Café
In the Café, the player can access (from left to right) the StreetPass Terrace, the Stable, the Barista and other characters, the Shop, Museum, Badges, Memories, and Mascots. The first two options are unlocked after clearing Lush Tower. The last three are available by talking to the Museum Curator.
Endless Games
Endless Games return in Megamix, which includes one game from each installment, and a new one of its own. They are unlocked by completing all three Trials set by the Gatekeeper Trio on that game's Gate, after which the endless version will be available in the Museum.
StreetPass Terrace
Whenever the player gets tagged by another player, the Cafe icon will display the Barista. For each player, the game displays their Mii, Flow, and Favorite Rhythm Game. Each player can be battled in Figure Fighter VS. This mode also has each character from the story to fight for those who can't use StreetPass.
Missing Games
While most 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, 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.
