The game uses a top-down vertical scrolling view. Players guide Amul through stages filled with airborne and ground-based enemies while firing forward shots. Collecting power-up orbs changes Amul into different colored dragons with altered attack patterns and stronger offensive options. Levels mix open skies with narrow passages, fixed hazards, and boss encounters, so movement and positioning are just as important as shooting. Progress is stage-based, with each boss clearing the way to the next area.

Strategy
Stay near the center or lower-middle of the screen to leave room for dodging. Learn where power-up orbs appear so you can maintain a useful dragon form for each stage. In cramped sections, clear nearby threats before advancing to avoid getting trapped by terrain or enemy fire. Bosses are safest when you focus on pattern recognition and controlled movement rather than rushing in.

Tips and tricks
- Power-up orbs can dramatically change your attack pattern, so plan around the stage layout before grabbing them.
- Do not hug the top of the screen in hazard-heavy sections; it reduces your reaction space.
- Boss fights are easier once you memorize their attack loops and safe lanes.
