(*) denotes songs that can be unlocked by clearing them in the expert course. All expert course songs will also automatically be unlocked after completing Sugoroku de 8.
Unlock Information
The unlock system for Pop'n Music 8 is a game called "SUGOROKU DE 8". (Sugoroku is a children's dice game.) To play the game, though, you must beat a specific challenge as you play through Arcade mode (for example, getting 0 misses or playing with a certain mod on. The requirement changes every time). Players guide a robot around the islands of Japan by rolling a dice; the robot then moves that many spaces. There are cities every three spaces, and when a player reaches a city, they might unlock a new song, course, or character. Players get different "prizes" each time the reach a different city. For example, the first time you reach Tokyo, you unlock CANDY♥. When you get to Tokyo the first time after you've made it all around Japan once, you unlock May Fa as a playable character.
