GAME MODES – GROUP
Generally speaking, group modes use the same modes as single but apply them to teamwork. While in the room, players will allocate themselves into a team, red or blue. Teams must always have the same number of players.
Normal Group
This is like Normal Individual mode but arranged for teams. The dancers on each team will take turns doing their moves. Each successful move makes you advance a level. If someone misses, the level resets. Players doing the moves will move up to the front then slide back as another’s turn comes up. It gets a bit laggy at times.
Boys Vs Girls
Same as Normal Individual Teams, but boys will be on the blue team and girls on the red team. There are some very funny animations at the end of Boys vs Girl dance-offs. There is also a randomizer at the end that can give your team bonus Beats, bonus experience or reduce the experience gained by the losing team.
Two teams take turns doing Choreographed and Freestyle moves. Missing a move doesn’t affect your team mates.
Choreography
Teams Choreography is actually a Freestyle team battle. Dancers can do whatever move they choose, but their team members must do the exact same move or they miss the move and skip a turn. Points are still awarded even if only one or two members of the team do the move successfully.
Battle Party
This mode requires you to create a room specifically for Battle Party gameplay. When you make a room, there is a little box for you to check. You also much be at least level 6 to enter this mode. In a Battle Party, an NPC will jon the room. A team of five dancers will battle the NPC by betting a certain amount of Beats (varies according to the NPC’s level). If the team’s total score is higher that the NPC’s score, the team wins the Beats. If not, they won’t win anything at all.
B-Boy Battle
In this mode, a member of one team will do a Freestyle move. The arrows for the move will briefly appear on the screen so that the opposite team can memorize the sequence. The purpose is to mimic your opponent’s move to counter their “attack”. If one of the team members activates the chance mode, then the other team will have to deal with three red arrows in the move and do the opposite of what they say. As you successfully memorize and counter your adversary’s move, your team’s meter goes up. When it’s full you can do a Team Move. B-Boy can be played in 4-key or 8-key modes.
Couples/Expert Couples
Couples is a lot of fun, but it requires extra effort from both dancers. A male and female pair up (no same sex couples allowed) and they each get a long bar with several arrows. Some of the arrows will be faded out, others will be blue. This means that you only hit the blue ones (the faded arrows are your partner’s part). If both of you manage to hit a perfect move at the same time (synchronized perfect, you get a heart. Accumulate three hearts to see the couple hugging at the end of the dance, and five hearts to see them kissing. Earning five hears allows you and your pair to take the couples license test and become a couple in game. The winner is the couple with the most points at the end of the song.
