Music games are a genre of video games that challenge players to engage with music through rhythm-based mechanics, often requiring them to press buttons, dance, or perform specific actions in time with the beat of a song. These games can range from traditional rhythm games like Dance Dance Revolution and Guitar Hero, where players mimic choreography or play instruments, to more casual mobile titles like Beat Fever or Just Dance Now, which use touch controls to match musical patterns. Music games often feature a wide variety of songs and genres, encouraging players to improve their timing, coordination, and musicality while enjoying an interactive and immersive experience that blends gaming with music appreciation.
