[5] The arcade game uses the same flight-controller style joystick with built-in trigger as Midway's Tron, released the same year.
The player shoots attacking demons while attempting to build a bridge to the next screen to fight a fire-breathing devil head.
The player must shoot flying formations of gargoyles in order to pick up pieces of a bridge that must be built over a river of lava.
As the game progresses, the gargoyles begin to throw exploding eggs, along with rocks that can destroy bridge sections; the player also occasionally faces disembodied devil heads that float around the screen and spit fire.
Gargoyles will sometimes attempt to steal a ship from the player's reserves, and must be destroyed before reaching the top of the screen in order to avoid losing a life.
