The game uses a top-down vertical scrolling view, with the player controlling a bomber that advances through six stages. Directional movement handles positioning while the action button fires weapons and drops attacks on ground targets. Power-ups appear during play and can improve offensive power. Enemy resistance comes from tanks, guns, ships, and aircraft, and many encounters require careful movement to avoid concentrated fire. Each stage ends with a tougher boss-like threat or fortified objective before the next area begins.

Clear ground emplacements first, especially anti-aircraft guns that can trap you in narrow movement lanes. Stay toward the lower-middle part of the screen so you have room to react to incoming fire. After picking up a power-up, avoid rushing forward blindly; use the extra damage to eliminate priority targets quickly. Against tougher stage-end enemies, focus on safe movement patterns and consistent fire rather than forcing aggressive positioning.
