The game uses an angled top-down view of the court and offers singles and doubles matches. Players move their character with the directional controls and use buttons for serving, groundstrokes, lobs, volleys, and smashes. Timing and positioning are central to success, since shot placement and recovery speed determine most rallies. Court surfaces affect ball bounce and pace, and matches are played in standard sets and games.
