It appears to be very similar to the early Atari cocktails, with their rectangular glass and control panels along both sides. The player's ship actually travels in an arch and elevates towards the sides of the screen. You can use this to allow alien ships and bombs to pass under your ship. If a bomb drone is dropping close to the side of the screen, you can survive by being at the other side when it explodes. The game just has wave after wave of attacking ships.
Some ships take several shots to destroy and the largest ships have shields.
There is a shield weapon which allows the player to fly up screen and ram alien ships to destroy them, but the shield can only be used once per life. The soldering on the board containing the monitor adjustment buttons is weak and prone to breaking when making adjustments. The game play is very much like Galaga or Galaxian in that you have a ship which can go from side to side at the bottom of the screen. Ships attack in waves and rain bombs down on the player's ship. Alien ships may also make kamakazie runs at the player's ship to destroy it.
