Rhythm Heaven Megamix (リズム天国ザ・ベスト+ Rhythm Tengoku: The Best Plus+) also known as Rhythm Paradise Megamix in Europe, and Rhythm World: The Best Plus in Korea, is the fourth 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 70 minigames from the previous three Rhythm Heaven games, 20 new minigames, and 10 remixes.

Story Mode

I discovered something interesting!

This page may contain spoilers! Read at your own risk.

In the single player Story 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, & Phillip, 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. Here, the player may board the Challenge Train, where the player must beat a series of minigames, usually with modified rules and tempo. Additionally, if the Perfect Campaign is up, it can be challenged here. Challenge Land becomes playable once the player clears the Lush Tower.

List of Rhythm Games

The majority of games appear in Story Mode, where they are grouped into sets of four; one Rhythm Tengoku game, one Rhythm Heaven game, one Rhythm Heaven Fever game, and one new game.

(Games marked with "[Prequel]" are new versions of previous rhythm games, and are considerably easier than their predecessors. Games marked with "[Original]" are the original versions of the rhythm game from their respective Rhythm Heaven title. Games marked with "[Sequel]" are a sequel to the ORIGINAL game, not a prequel. Games not marked at all have no brand-new prequel, nor sequel.)

Café

In the cafe you can play with your Rhythm Toys, buy Rhythm Items, CD's and extra games with Flow Balls and visit the Museum.

Shop Games

Shop games act like extra games from Fever, but instead of getting medals in each rhythm game to unlock them, they can be bought from the shop owned by Saffron with Flow Balls found by playing Challenge Land's Perfect Campaign and Challenge Train's challenges. All shop games are returning minigames from the previous games in the series which allow you to perfect them. Some of them can be found in Challenge Train's challenges depending on if the player hasn't bought them yet.

Rhythm Toys

Rhythm Toys return, but in a slightly different format. Unlike with Rhythm Toys in past games, the Rhythm Toys that appear in this game are constantly checked on for various reasons throughout the playthrough of the game, and are not accessible until you clear the Lush Tower.

List of Rhythm Toys

Streetpass

Whenever you got tagged by another player, the Cafe icon will display Barista, hinting that another player has tagged you. For each player you tagged, displays the player's Mii, number of Flow, and Favorite Rhythm Game, just like the rest of the characters. You also battle each of the players you tagged through Figure Fighter VS.

Missing Games

While most games returned in Megamix, 25 didn't make the cut. The following are the games from past incarnations of Rhythm Heaven that did not return for Megamix. (Sequels whose prequel is in Megamix are written in bold. Remixes, Endless Games and Two-Player Games aren't listed.)

Reception

This game has received a review of 34/40 on Famitsu.

According to a report, this game sold over 500,000 copies in Japan by the end of 2015. ^[3].

As of February 2016, the total sales in Japan reached 650,000 copies.

This game is known to be favorable on MetaCritic with an avarage score of 83.

Trivia

There is a challenge train set called "Wario...Where?", where many characters from the minigames are replaced with WarioWare characters. This is due to both series being created by the same developers.
This is the first game to not include any of Tsunku's songs in the new Rhythm Games.
This game currently holds the record for the most Rhythm games in it, due to the games being from every game in the series.
When this game was talked about at the E3 2016, #RhythmHeaven quickly became a trending topic on Twitter.
During the real credits the following things and characters from various games can be seen.
- The tree from Lush Remix.
- The Huebirds of Happiness from Flock Step.
- The Skill Star you can collect in every game.
- The planet from Remix 7 of Rhythm Heaven Fever.
- The Rhythm Rockets from Launch Party.
- The Alien From Spaceball.
- The huge machine from Working Dough, it also shines the color of the forest.
- Play-Yan and the star from Night Walk.
- The riceball from Spaceball.
- All the colors for each Remix: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.
- The Moon Bunnies from Bunny Hop.
- The outline for the star in Star Land.
- Rhythm Heaven itself.
Ashley makes a cameo in the café as a doll.
The minigames at gates and towers are lined up by their game from oldest to newest (for example in the Lush Tower: First is Spaceball from Rhythm Tengoku, then Dog Ninja from Rhythm Heaven, then Hole in One from Rhythm Heaven Fever and finally the new one - Sumo Brothers).
While using simple tap, it shows a character when tapping. This is a reference to Rhythm Heaven.
This the first game in the series to have threequels included.
It is notable that almost all of the title cards in most of the international versions of the game all use a small handful of font styles, and are rather simplistic compared to the more artistic and unique title cards in the Japanese version and Rhythm Heaven Fever.
- This is noble in Rhythm Rally 1, 2, & Cosmic; Marching Orders; Catchy Tune 1 & 2; Super Samurai Slice 2; Built to Scale; Packing Pests; Micro-Row 1 & 2; Working Dough 1 & 2; Screwbot Factory; Monkey Watch; and various other minigames from Rhythm Heaven Fever.
The only title card to be fully changed from the Japanese version is Karate Man Combos!.
This game has a few leftover/placeholder songs from Rhythm Heaven Fever.
