Tap Trial (タップダンス?, Tap Dance) is the 5th Rhythm Game of Stage 5 (29th overall) in Rhythm Tengoku, the 4th Extra Game in Rhythm Heaven Fever unlockable with 44 Medals, and the 1st Rhythm Game of Songbird Tower (58th overall) in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

The arrange version, Tap Trial 2, appears in Revival in Rhythm Tengoku and in Right-Hand Tower in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Gameplay

The player controls the Girl, who dances simultaneously with the two Monkeys and must follow their signals. If the monkeys let out a small cry, it signals to tap once right afterwards. If they make two noises, then it signals to tap twice quickly afterwards. If the monkey yells as all the characters raise their arms, it signals to tap three times quickly afterwards. If the monkey yelps, it signals to tap the moment the girl and monkeys have landed a jump.

I have heard that there is a shade of

Are these shoes that magical color?
The only way to know is put them on!

Tap Dance 2P (タップダンス 2P?, Tap Dance 2P) is the 4th Rhythm Game of Stage 3 (12th overall) in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade).

The arrange version, Super Tap 2P, appears in Stage 5 in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade).

It plays the same as the 1P version, but there are two girls and only one monkey.

Trivia

  • This game has the most variations and graphical changes out of all the games in the Rhythm Heaven Series, having five different variations in its first appearance alone, and two more variants introduced in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, which brings the total of variations to 7.
    • In terms of variations, Shoot-'Em-Up beats it, but by graphical changes in general, this game beats it by one.
  • There is a small difference between versions -- at the very end of the game in Rhythm Tengoku, the girl and the monkeys do a jump tap, followed by a head-bob which resets their animation. They stay in the post-jump pose in the other versions.
  • The monkeys appear larger in the GBA version, likely to avoid cutting down on details. In Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix, they are resized to better fit the monkeys of those games.
  • This game appears in the "Wario...Where?" Challenge Train Course, where the girl is replaced by Ashley and her apprentice Red can be seen riding the Giraffe.
    • Ashley makes the generic miss sound when failing on a jump, unlike the Girl who has unique voice clips.
