"Let's Tap" is a video game in development by Yuji Naka's studio Prope and scheduled to be published by Sega for the Wii console. Along with "Let's Catch", "Let's Tap" is the first game from Prope to be announced.

Gameplay

"Let's Tap" consists of a number of minigames that requires the player to tap a flat surface with their hands to play. The game requires the player to set the Wii Remote face-side down on a flat, stable surface, with the accelerometer picking up their vibrations as they tap the surface to move an on screen character in a race, inflate a balloon, create ripples in a pool of water or paint swirls on a canvas.

In a video released by Sega the player is shown resting the Wii Remote on a empty box originally used to package the Wii console. [http://www.gametrailers.com/player/40715.html Let's Tap Japanese Debut Trailer] ] Sega will release the game in a larger than normal box that players will be able to use as a tapping surface.

Minigames

According to the official Prope website the game will feature the following minigames:

* Tap Runner: Up to four players compete in a side scrolling race along an obstacle course where they must jump over chasms, climb up ramps and edge along tightropes, in addition to completing mini challenges such as inflating a balloon the fastest. The game is controlled with the speed of taps, with rhythmic tapping making the player jog, faster taps to run and a hard tap to jump.
* Rhythm T
Players tap in time to a moving timeline of musical beats.
* Visualizer: A freeform mode where players use taps to create imagery such as fireworks bursting over a futuristic cityscape, paint splattering on a canvas, and ripples of water across a pond.
* Silent Blocks
* Bubble Voyager
