The game combines side-scrolling action with stage progression and character switching. Each hero has different movement and attack traits, making certain areas easier with specific characters. Players move through themed worlds, jump across platforms, avoid hazards, defeat enemies, and fight bosses. Progress often depends on choosing the right character for the terrain and enemy layout.
