Second Contact (かえってきた 通訳者 Kaettekita Tsuyakusha "Return of Interpreter") is the 4th Rhythm Game of Citrus Tower (46th overall) in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
The short version, First Contact, appears in Citrus Land.
Gameplay
The goal of the game is to translate what is being said to the rhythm. It is similar to First Contact. In this game, the player controls a Martian translating a human named Farmer Bob.
Second Contact's gameplay focuses on repeating a pattern by hitting the A button or directional pad. Farmer Bob will start by speaking to a rhythm represented by a symbol (a picture of a human) and then give the Martian a cue to repeat that same rhythm, translating the symbols to words. The gameplay is the same as its prequel, but with faster and more complex rhythms.

What was that? We wait with bated breath! Didn't quite catch that--not sure we wanted to. Yikes? |

Eh. Passable. |

Yup, definitely heard you loud and clear... Even when things got awkward, you nailed it. We were feeling the love...unfortunately. |

Everyone was surprised at how quickly we started a culinary exchange with Mars, but they shouldn't have been. Look at it! It's basically a space meatball! |
