The game uses a dance pad with directional inputs. Arrows scroll on screen and must be stepped on at the correct moment to score points and maintain combos. Modes typically include single-song play, practice-style options, and sequential sets of tracks. Performance is judged by timing accuracy, combo length, and remaining stamina, while harder songs introduce denser patterns and faster streams.

Strategy
Start on easier songs to learn the beat and arrow patterns, then build up speed gradually. Use the rhythm of the music rather than focusing only on the visual prompts. Try to keep your feet centered for quick recovery between steps, and practice repeated patterns until they become automatic.
Cheats
No reliable universal cheats are documented.
Tips
Tips and tricks
