Pop’n Music

The first game includes Beginner Mode, Normal Mode, and Hard Mode. Beginner is the easiest mode, starting out with a short tutorial stage, and only two songs can be chosen instead of the usual three. Mimi and Nyami are the default characters for this mode.

Normal Mode is the standard mode, with three stages per round. Characters will interrupt or block some of the play area using an ojama-like effect. Mary is the default character for Normal Mode.

Hard Mode is the final mode. While it remains mostly similar to Normal Mode, it introduces Ojama. Ojama are activated at random in each song played. The King is the default character in Hard Mode.

The CS game also includes Training Mode and Free Mode. Training Mode allows players to play a specific segment of a song, play at different speeds, or toggle ojama settings. Free Mode has all unlocked songs available for play, and isn’t limited to three songs per round.
