An angel from heaven has been sent by God to help troubled souls on Earth. As a cherub in training, you dole out good deeds by way of slapping a percussion "instrument" in time to a stream of angel wings which descend on screen. Your archenemy in this exercise of rhythm aptitude rests in the dark and pointy tailed persona of a bat-winged demon girl.

Two percussion controllers are included with each copy of Tam Tam. Players beat on the circular piece as well as the crescent shaped portion of the controller to the angel wing cues on screen.
