An easier Novice difficulty offers charts at level 1 for all songs in both games. This difficulty is exclusive to Single and 2 Player modes. It is comparable to Beginner from ''Dance Dance Revolution'', although Beginner is occasionally higher than level 1. Note the numbers given for each difficulty level are similar to DDR's 1-10 "footers", except In The Groove removed the "footer" label and added 3 additional difficulty levels, which aim to have harder stepcharts than the hardest 10-footer songs in DDR.
