Examples

Achievement:
Acoustic Ecology:
Ambiance:
Death:
Dialogue:
Engagement:
Entrainment: In this game Entrainment is not only a consequence but also a requisite of the Rhythm Gameplay. The player voluntary seeks to keep in sync with the beat of the game. The exteriorization of the game's beat in the player's body language is a common testimony. The game's tempo is 120 bpm (4/4).
Failure:
Footsteps:
In-game Feedback:
Levelled Performance: Songs and, later, Miracles that trigger specific effects, are progressively made available along the the game.
Menus:
Musical Outcome:
Ouch!:
Play the Beat:
Shout and Yell:
Silence:
Sing to Act:
Sonic Weapon: Megapons carry massive horns and their (audible) sound waves transform into shapes that inflict much damage in the enemy.
Sound Effects:
Sound Input:
Sound Visualization: The all visual representation pulses with the sound - from the most objective, as the rectangle in the border and the drums' onomatopoeias (mapping the Sound Input), to the more subtle, as the moves and details of the characters (which map and the Sound Input and the sound they echo themselves).
Subtitles and Captions: Speech balloons represent messages that are not actually heard.
Window of Opportunity:
Narrative: The Narrative sometimes interweaves with Levelled Performance, because the unlocking of sound performance abilities is accompanied with a new piece of the story [pending: double check this].
Patapon: Patapon is an extraordinary example of a game that crosses genres, and combines explorations which are traditionally apart.
