The game takes a from-behind perspective similar to ''[[Galaxy Force II]]''; the game is played by directing the player's ship to turn up, down, left, or right and shoot at certain times. In addition, the player rotates the device to rotate their ship, which is necessary to pass through certain holes that they would not be able to fit through otherwise.
