nihongo|"Rhythm Heaven"|リズム天国ゴールド|Rizumu Tengoku Gōrudo|known in Japan as "Rhythm Heaven Gold" is a rhythm video game for the Nintendo DS handheld video game console. It is the sequel to the Game Boy Advance game "Rhythm Tengoku".

Gameplay

"Rhythm Heaven" has the player tap, flick, and hold the stylus on the touch screen to make a beat to go with the background music for the level. The Nintendo DS is held on its side like a book with the top screen on the left and the touch screen on the right (vice versa in left-handed mode). There are ten sets of stages with five stages per set - four original levels, and a final remix level that uses scenes from the first four levels. After the sixth set of stages, the game has second versions of most of the earlier levels with a higher difficulty level. When trying to make a beat properly, the player has three things that can happen - the beat can either be correct, it can be a half-miss, or he or she may miss altogether. At the end of the stage, the player is judged on his or her rhythm with three ranks - High Level, Mediocre, and Redo. If the player gets High Level or Mediocre, he or she gets to go to the next level up. If he or she gets Redo, the level has to be redone. Getting a Mediocre puts a silver border on the stage's icon, while getting a High Level puts a gold border on it. After getting a gold border, the game may pick this stage out for the player to try to get a Perfect Heart. If the player gets it, the stage gets "Perfect" written below it. When the player returns to the stage select screen after completing a level, a number starts to change, and depending on how well the player did, it may go up, down, or stay the same.

Controls

There are four control types:
*Tap (For example, to shoot in the shooting minigame)
*Flick (For example, to hit the ball in the ping pong minigame)
*Hold (For example, to keep you swimmer underwater)
