Rhythm sensations can be represented in time to music by using the entire body and to create powerfulness and rhythm sensations. Stepping position indication data which is set by a rhythm setting section is read from a stepping position indication data memory, and the stepping position instruction contents are scrolled and displayed on a monitor by a scroll display control section, thereby performing instructions of the stepping position and the stepping operation timing. When the fact that a player steps on a step-on base section in accordance with the display contents of the monitor is detected by a cable switch and this is input from a stepping operation monitor section, a score proportional to the timing deviation is calculated by an amount-of-deviation detection/totaling section, and next, an evaluation is performed by the rhythm setting section. Then, the next stepping position indication data is set according to the evaluation result.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A dance game for use by a game player comprising:an output device for outputting a stored rhythmic piece;a floor panel having a plurality of step-on-sections having different floor panel indicia, each of said step-on sections outputting a step-on signal when step-on contact is applied to each step-on section by the dance game player;a display unit displaying first display indicia in which each first display indicia has a recognizable relationship with a corresponding floor panel indica, said display unit also displaying a second display indicia in which each second display indicia has a recognizable relationship with a respective corresponding first display indicia;a guidance unit for controlling the relative movement between the first indicia and the second display indicia such that each first display indicia sequentially establishes a mating relationship with a respective corresponding second display indicia in timed relationship with said rhythmic piece such that said dance game player is instructed to sequentially step-on the different step-on sections in timed relationship with the sequential establishment of said mating relationships and thereby in timed relationship with said rhythmic piece, said guidance unit outputting a guidance unit signal when said mating relationship is established; andan evaluation unit receiving said step-on signals and said guidance unit signals and providing an evaluation of the dance game player's performance based on said step-on signals and said guidance unit signals.
