The core of the game revolves around 4 arrows placed in a cross position on a dance platform to be stepped on by the feet of the players to musical and visual cues. The spin-off, [[AC DDR Solo BASS|DanceDanceRevolution Solo]] used 6 panels by adding an up-left and up-right arrows to the existing 4 arrows setup.

=== Judgement System ===
=== Judgement System ===
Players are judged by how well they time their steps to the patterns shown on screen when they reach the [[DDR General Info|Step Zone]]. Each arrow that passes the Step Zone receives a text-based timing result based on the accuracy. From highest to lowest: <span style="color:#f0d3a1;">'''Marvelous!!!'''</span>, <span style="color: #f6ee1f;">'''Perfect!!'''</span>, <span style="color: #25ea17;">'''Great!'''</span>, <span style="color: #1ba1ff;">'''Good'''</span>, <span style="color: #fe1d23;">'''Miss...'''</span>

Missing a Frezze Arrow or stepping on a Shock Arrow will result in getting a <span style="color: #757474;">'''N.G.'''</span> (No Good) while hitting it (or avoiding stepping on it for Shock Arrows) correctly will give the timing <span style="color: #f47514;">'''O.K.!'''</span> The timing Marvelous was added on every play modes in [[AC DDR SuperNOVA2|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2]]. Until [[AC DDR X2|DanceDanceRevolution X2]], Almost was a judgement result placed before Miss.  


The timing result influences both the score of the player and the player’s life meter. Continuously missing or receiving poor timing judgments drain the life gauge. After a while if the player doesn’t improve, this could lead to the game ending prematurely (getting a “Game Over”, thus failing the song). A visual cue exists to help identify when the life meter is low, it goes from being rainbow colored (no misses in a while) to green (a few miss) and finally to red (danger). The life gauge usually starts at half its capacity and is shown in green as default.

In later games, the standard LIFE GAUGE is often replaced with a stricter gauge such as [[DDR AC General Info|RISKY]] during a special event called an EXTRA STAGE which is unlocked after fulfilling one or more conditions.

Another concept is the ability to create a combo. After hitting successfully a number of steps, the combo number will appear on the screen. Since DDR 2013, getting a Great won’t break the combo and only getting a Miss or N.G. can now break a combo.
