The player plays a warehouse worker and pushes boxes around to their storage locations. Each puzzle is a single screen with no scrolling and consists of a grid of floor and wall tiles. Some of the floor tiles are marked with a yellow dot, which represents a storage location.

The player is confined to the board and may move horizontally or vertically onto empty squares (but never through walls or boxes) using the joystick. The player can move a box by walking up to it and pushing it to the square beyond. Boxes cannot be pulled, and they cannot be pushed to squares with walls or other boxes. The number of boxes equals the number of storage locations. The puzzle is solved when all boxes are placed at storage locations.

The game tracks how many moves the player takes to complete the puzzle. Puzzles can become unsolvable if a box is pushed to a tile where it cannot be moved. The player can restart the puzzle by holding 1+2 for a few seconds, which costs a life. The game ends if the player runs out of lives.

There are 100 puzzles total, which can be selected in any order. There is also an editor that allows the player to create new puzzles. User-made puzzles can be saved to and loaded from tape if the console has a Data Recorder SR-1000 connected.
