This game is about a girl who is auditioning for the TV hit group The Dazzles. The playable character follows the rest of the girls in rhythm and is supposed to be the last to crouch down in the ice-cube tray-like set of boxes. The player must follow a "Three, Two..." cue to crouch, then pose following one of a few patterns. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the stage is rotated to account for the new resolution. While crouching, a yellow square appears around the boxes, which then shrinks to indicate the proper timing for the pose.
Perfect!/Ace!: While crouching, the player crouches in sync with the others. When posing, the player's Dazzle has stars emitting from her finger, and the audience applauds. The girls are all happy.
Early!/Late!: While crouching, the player crouches slightly out of sync. The yellow square in Rhythm Heaven Megamix doesn't appear. When posing, the player's Dazzle poses slightly out of sync, causing no reaction from the audience. The other girls glare at her.
Miss...: While crouching, the player's Dazzle either crouches when she's not supposed to, or misses the crouch entirely, ruining the routine. Either way, the other girls glare at her. If the player jumps when they're not supposed to, the other Dazzles stumble over and clutch their stomaches in embarrassment, cancelling the current routine.

Hm... Good enough... I don't know... I guess that was all right.

Great performance! You were great on the backbeat! You did great without a rehearsal! Great work! Welcome to the team!

You just pour water into it and leave it in the freezer to make ice cubes. Did you know that round ice melts slower than cubes? You'll have to look up why. I feel like I've seen this before... Where?
The characters in this game are designed after the real-life group THE POSSIBLE.
Play-Yan can be seen hanging off one of the stars that appear on certain jumps.
The official artwork for the characters from Rhythm Heaven has a few differences from the in-game designs:
Most girls have different hair colors.
All of the girls have white undershirts, despite the game lacking that design choice.
The official artwork for Rhythm Heaven Megamix meanwhile shows the player's Dazzle with a turtleneck dress, hiding her neck.
In Rhythm Heaven, the Practice session of The Dazzles features the girls in blue training hoodies. The Try Again epilogue features these same outfits, while in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, they wear pink tracksuits instead. However, during the game's practice in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, they wear the same red dresses as they do in the real game.
The pose near the "Singing for you." line no longer triggers the stars in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. This might be so that the stars don't overlap with the Skill Star.
In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, if the player messes up on a crouch, the yellow square doesn't show up. Despite this, it spontaneously appears in time for the pose.
