The game style is principally a platformer which finds the player running and jumping through various screens, numbering around a hundred.

Many of the rooms include enemies, which generally follow fixed paths but may also swarm and chase the player.

The player starts the game with two weapons: fire breath which is limited but may be replenished by collecting items, and a punch which is unlimited.

Impacting upon water whilst in a humanoid form generally results in immediate death, as does falling large distances or touching spikes.
