The game combines real-time combat with top-down dungeon exploration. As the maze rotates, corridors and rooms change orientation, forcing players to constantly read the environment. Progress depends on fighting enemies, opening doors, triggering switches, and navigating traps while managing limited resources and equipment upgrades. Level design emphasizes careful movement and route planning over direct speed.
