Think you've got what it
takes to tap-dance with
the monkeys?
(Has anyone ever written
that sentence before?)

Good evening, Miss!
Come and meet your tap
partners for tonight. Please
don't step on their tails.

You are the girl. They are

Template:Game-Nav Template:Game-Nav Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox

Tap Trial (タップダンス?, Tap Dance) is the 29th game in Rhythm Tengoku, the 4th Extra Game in Rhythm Heaven Fever unlockable with 44 Medals, and the 58th game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The game is about a girl who is learning to tap dance like the Monkeys. A sequel is unlocked later on in Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Heaven Megamix called Tap Trial 2.

Gameplay

The 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.

  • A: Tap

Simple Tap Mode

  • Tap: Tap

Timing Notes

  • Hit: The girl taps on the beat.
  • Barely: A quick "dink" sound is heard, if done during the jump steps, the girl will land correctly but the tap sound won't be heard. A barely counts as a miss.
  • Miss: The girl taps off beat, causing the Giraffe to huff sadly. If missed on where the monkeys yelp, the girl will incorrectly land.

— Tap Trial 2P Description

Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox

Tap Trial also appears in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) where it is referred to as Tap Trial 2P (タップダンス 2P?, Tap Dance 2P). 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 Rhythm Tengoku, having five different variations in its first appearance.
    • Rhythm Heaven Megamix introduces two more variants to Tap Trial, 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 -- in the GBA version, the girl and the monkeys do a jump tap, followed by a head-bobbing cue which resets their animation. They stay in the pose in the other versions.
  • The monkeys are noticeably smaller in the Fever and Megamix versions, most likely to make them more consistent with the other monkeys in those games.
  • In Fever & Megamix, during the jump tap cue, the girl's legs detach from her body.
  • This game appears in the "Wario...Where?" Challenge Train where the girl is replaced by Ashley and her apprentice Red can be seen riding the Giraffe.
