Examples

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).
Levelled Performance: Songs and, later, Miracles that trigger specific effects, are progressively made available along the the game.
Sonic Weapon: Megapons carry massive horns and their (audible) sound waves transform into shapes that inflict much damage in the enemy.
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].
