Taiko no Tatsujin: Pop Tap Beat is a rhythm game developed by Bandai Namco Entertainment, released in 2021 on iOS and Mac as part of the Apple Arcade subscription service. Based on the long-running Japanese arcade series Taiko no Tatsujin, the game centers on traditional taiko drumming mechanics, tasking players with tapping and drumming in time with scrolling musical notes. The series has its roots in Japanese arcade culture, and this installment adapts that experience for Apple devices, translating the core rhythm gameplay to touchscreen and desktop inputs. Players follow on-screen cues, striking notes in sync with the music to build combos and score points. The game maintains the colorful, distinctive visual style associated with the franchise while bringing its accessible yet timing-focused gameplay to a mobile and desktop audience.
