Splashdown (シンクロ?, Synchro) is the 1st Rhythm Game of the fifth stage (21st overall) in Rhythm Heaven.
The arrange version, Splashdown 2, appears in the tenth stage of Rhythm Heaven.
Gameplay
In this game, the player controls on of The Three Synchrettes, who are performing synchronized swimming to the beat. The player must follow the sequence in rhythm, diving underwater and surfacing again after the first two synchrettes. At certain points, they jump out of the water while riding dolphins. These jumps occur either in sequence or together after an "Ooooh" cue. Near the end, two jumps have the three girls throw three other girls into the air instead, revealing there are actually six synchrettes in all.
Controls
- Tap (Hold): Dive underwater
- Tap (Release): Surface
- Flick: Jump out of the water
Timing Display
- Perfect!/Ace!: The player successfully dives underwater and successfully resurfaces in whichever pose the others are doing, prompting the crowd to cheer. When jumping out of the water, the synchrette and her dolphin perform a flip. The tossed synchrettes exclaim "Ally-oop!".
- Early!/Late!: N/A[citation needed]
- Miss...: If the player misses their cue, a 'doink' sound is heard. When resurfacing off the beat, the player flails out of the water in panic. When jumping out of the water at the wrong time, the synchrette pops out hanging onto the dolphin's tail, both having worried looks on their faces. The tossed synchrette flails around in the air helplessly.

You guys didn't sync up. You sort of lost your cool. Your jumps were sort of clumsy. |
