Tap Trial
Think you've got what it takes to tap-dance with the monkeys? |
Template:Minigame infobox Tap Dance (タップダンス?, Tappu Dansu) is the twenty-ninth game in Rhythm Tengoku. The game is about a girl who is learning to tap dance like the monkeys. A sequel is unlocked later on called Turbo Tap Trial.
Gameplay
File:Tapdance.pngThe girl (the character played in this game) 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.
Controls
- A: Tap
Hit or Miss
- Hit: The girl taps on the beat.
- Barely: A quick "dink" sound is heard. A barely counts as a hit.
- Miss: The girl taps off beat, causing the Giraffe to huff sadly. If missed on where the monkeys yelp, the girl will incorrectly land.

Trivia
- This game was graphically updated for Rhythm Heaven Fever in an Extra Game known as Tap Trial, which is unlocked after accumulating 44 Medals.
- The monkeys are noticeably smaller in the Fever version, most likely to make them more consistent with the other monkeys in that game.
- This game has the most variations and graphical changes out of all the games in the entire series, having a whopping five different variations- the original, the sequel variant in Super Tap with "SARU" Monkeys, the Remix 5 variant featuring "delinquent" monkeys and a blonde woman, and two other variants used in Remix 7 and Remix 8- one with a Chinese theme and yellow monkeys taking place in the sky, and one with pigs instead of monkeys, taking place inside a kitchen.
- Rhythm Tengoku: The Best + introduces yet another variation to Tap Trial in the Bird Remix, featuring the woman and the monkeys all dressed up like birds while tap dancing inside a birdcage. This brings the total of variations for this minigame to 6.
- This is one of a few games to have different rating screens of both versions.
