Players get to choose any one of four monsters for battle, and two players can join forces to fight the monsters together. Battles end when one of the monsters is pinned for a three count or if time expires (in which case the player loses).

The game consists of 8 total levels: the player first must defeat all four monsters, with the last monster being oneself, but in a different palette. Then the player must defeat the four monsters again, in the same order, but this time in different cities.
