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 an empty box originally used to package the Wii console. In Japan and Europe Sega released the game with two foldout cardboard boxes that players are able to use as a tapping surface, but these are not included in the North American package.
Reception
Let's Tap has received mixed or average reviews from critics, garnering a Metascore of 70 at Metacritic.
Eurogamer praised the innovative control method and the well-designed minigames, calling it "one of the few worthwhile and interesting mini-game compilations in existence". N-Europe called it "very original and conceptually ambitious", praising its accessible control scheme and multiplayer modes.
