Clap Trap (しらはドール?, Shirawa Doll) is the 1st Two-Player Endless Game in Rhythm Heaven Fever, unlocked with 1 Duo Medal, and the 75th Rhythm Game seen at The Fourth Gate and can be unlocked as an Endless Game by beating the Gatekeeper Trio's trials in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
Gameplay
The players control the Clap Trap Doll, who must stop karate chops aimed at the head. To do this, the players must clap its hands at just the right moment to stop the karate chops. Attacks are signaled by three beats, then the players must pause for a beat and then clap. If successful, the attack is blocked and the game continues. If failed, the karate chop hits the doll on the head and creates a bump. Three bumps result in a game over, and as such these bumps act as lives.
As the game progresses, the tempo changes dramatically and pauses get longer, often playing ambient noise, and the doll occasionally taking a breath during long pauses. The karate chops start off with a human hand, then a cat's paw, a tree branch with a monkey on it, and finally a green onion.
In Rhythm Heaven Fever, P1 controls the doll's right hand while P2 controls its left. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the single player controls both hands simultaneously. The hands remain color coded for each player regardless.
