First Contact

Huh? The martian wants to say something. Make sure you translate it well!

— Interpreter Description

First Contact (通訳者　tsuyakusha "interpreter") is a variant of Interpreter from later in Rhythm Heaven: The Best +. In this game, the player controls an astronaut, whose mission is to translate what the alien is saying. In this variant, it is an astronaut talking to an alien, unlike the "normal" version.

Gameplay

As is expected, the Gameplay is around translating what the alien says. This is done by hitting the button in the same way that the Alien shows, as the alien will say something in a beat, and you must match said beat to translate him properly.
