He is used in one of Mochizuki's experiments related to the creation of the "Neo-Existence," enabling him to transform into the grasshopper-like Kamen Rider ZO.

The game is a movie with limited interactivity. During battle sequences, the player is instructed to press directions on the D-pad or a button ({{A}} to guard, {{B}} to kick, or {{C}} to punch) corresponding to the character's actions. Faster button responses do more damage to foes, but incorrect or delayed responses harm the player instead. The character's life bar is shown on the right side, and the enemy's life bar is shown on the left side. When the foe's life gauge is exhausted, the foe is defeated. If the player defeats the foe before the scene is over, the player watches the rest of the battle play out. Occasionally, a flashing button icon appears to indicate that the player must press {{A}}, {{B}}, and {{C}} repeatedly to charge the character's "Inner Strength," indicated by the "push" bar. If the player succeeds in charging the push bar in time, the character is protected from damage.

The player's actions do not affect the outcome of battle scenes, but the player is sometimes presented with multiple options (selected with {{A}}, {{B}}, or {{C}}). Early in the game, all choices converge to the same storyline, though the player's choices affect which scenes are played. Later, wrong choices can result in the game ending.

Multiple choices

The game is a movie with limited interactivity. During battle sequences, the player is instructed to press directions on the D-Pad or a button (A to guard, B to kick, or C to punch) corresponding to the character's actions. Faster button responses do more damage to foes, but incorrect or delayed responses harm the player instead. The character's life bar is shown on the right side, and the enemy's life bar is shown on the left side. When the foe's life gauge is exhausted, the foe is defeated. If the player defeats the foe before the scene is over, the player watches the rest of the battle play out. Occasionally, a flashing button icon appears to indicate that the player must press A, B, and C repeatedly to charge the character's "Inner Strength," indicated by the "push" bar. If the player succeeds in charging the push bar in time, the character is protected from damage.

The player's actions do not affect the outcome of battle scenes, but the player is sometimes presented with multiple options (selected with A, B, or C). Early in the game, all choices converge to the same storyline, though the player's choices affect which scenes are played. Later, wrong choices can result in the game ending.

The game ends if the player's life bar is exhausted, but it can be continued from the beginning of the current scene. The player can decide the amount of continues and the difficulty level in the options before starting the game.

After completing the game, the player can replay it as an uninterrupted movie (with the same choices made).
