First player will go through all of the steps below; when first player finishes, second player will then go through the steps. When both players have taken their turn, they will be shown their total points and scores from the judges. The player with the highest points and judges’ scores is the winner!

  • Page 11 TIPS FOR PLAYING • Target feet show you where to place your feet for each dance move. When they first appear, they are hollow; then they fill with color to indicate the perfect time to step on them. To get the most points, step on each target foot the moment it completely fills with color. • Remember: use your left foot to step on the green target feet and your right foot to step on the red ones. • SLIDES: If you see arrows between two footprints, this indicates a slide move; slide your foot over the arrows to collect points. • JUMPS: When the game says “jump,” jump up and try to land on the target feet. POINTS & SCORING Dance Meter • Players get points for accuracy and timing. A dance meter keeps track of points. • If you do really well, your onscreen foot outlines will look like they’re glowing, then smoking, then on fire. • At the end of the song, you’ll see a message saying, “You’ve cleared!”, then the judges will score your overall performance. GAME OVER • If you miss enough steps to make the dance meter go down to zero, the song will end early and you will be encouraged to “keep practicing.” • Whether you clear the song or get the “keep practicing” message, you will have 3 options: PLAY AGAIN (which repeats the song you just danced to), CHOOSE ANOTHER SONG (which takes you to the song selection menu), and MAIN MENU.
  • Page 12: Automatic Shut-Off

    AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF The game will shut off automatically after 10 minutes of non-use. Your game will not be saved automatically during auto shutdown. The unit will need to be turned OFF and back ON again to continue play; you may start a new game or load a previously saved game. IMPORTANT TIPS • The game sensor may register other reflective surfaces (such as safety reflectors on some shoes). You may need to change to non-reflective shoes if you notice any problems.
