Sick Beats (バイキンはかせ?, Baikin Hakase) is the 10th game in Rhythm Tengoku and the 18th game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this rhythm game, you are a doctor protecting a yellow micro-organism by stabbing viruses with forks. This minigame appears in Gate 2 in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
Gameplay
The player uses the D-Pad to shoot the viruses from one of four directions, depending on their placement on the map. If even one virus gets to the end, the organism will pop.
Controls
Button Mode
- D-Pad: Shoot in the respective direction
Simple Tap Mode
- Tap: Shoot in the relevant direction
Timing Notes
- Hit: The viruses will be stabbed by one of the 4 forks. The doctor will turn to the camera and blush.
- Barely: The viruses will be stabbed, but barely touched, by the fork.
- Miss: The virus will continue on its way. The player has multiple chances to vanquish the virus; however, when it reaches the organism, the latter will make a worried noise, then pop, causing the doctor turns blue in shock. Normally it respawns, but it doesn't in the Trials and the Endless Game where the amount of organisms represent how many lives the player has before the game is over.

Sick Beats (バイキンはかせ?, Baikin Hakase), known as Baikin Hakase SP (バイキンはかせSP?, Baikin Hakase SP) in Rhythm Tengoku is the second Endless Game in Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It can be unlocked by obtaining 10 Medals in Rhythm Tengoku or beating the Gatekeeper Trio's trials in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The game is an endless version of the original, ending once a single virus gets through to the end without being stabbed. The game gets faster as it progresses, and new variations of viruses are introduced. Pink viruses will take two hits, and will continue to a different direction, meaning a player can't use the same side of the D-pad twice when vanquishing a pink one. A black virus has three hits, and follows the same properties as the pink.
Difficulty
The player has the option to select which difficulty they want in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. Saffron Trial: Only blue viruses are in this version. There are 3 organisms. Saltwater Trial: The blue may skip a section. Pink viruses are added. There are 2 organisms. Paprika Trial: The blue ones may skip 1-3 sections. Pink ones may skip 1-2 sections. Black viruses are added. There are 2 organisms.
Rhythm Items
| Radio | Offbeat Prescription |
|---|---|
 |
This item is surprisingly important to the doctor's work. You just can't cure diseases as well without some groovy tunes. |
(High Score: 120)
| Boom Box | Who Could Guess? |

Turns out that louder music allows for healthier patients. Can't say I would have guessed. |
Trivia
- This is the first game to not use the A button in Rhythm Tengoku.
- This game is unique for being set up like a tower defense game.
- While stabbing a virus, followed by an off-beat virus, a star will appear next to the doctor as he blushes.
- Although only blue viruses appear in the normal version of the game, a black virus appears in Remix 7.
- The music used in the Endless Game in Rhythm Tengoku is a slightly remixed version of the normal music. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the music is the same as the original, except for the addition of an ending note in the Gatekeeper Trio's Trials.
- This is one of the few games that doesn't feature a practice session in Rhythm Tengoku.
- This was changed in the arcade version and in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
- This is the only Rhythm Game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix to return as its Endless Game instead of the original. Quiz Show, Shoot'-Em-Up and Bossa Nova also have Endless Games, none of which were in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
- In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, all of the Endless Games have an unused description intended to be seen at the Museum. Normally they are the same as that of the Saffron Trial, but for Sick Beats, it matches that of the Paprika Trial in the Japanese and Korean versions, and is unique in every other language.
