The game is a top-down, stage-based shooter where Billy Bob moves through frontier towns while firing in eight directions. Movement is controlled with the D-pad, and the player uses shooting to clear enemies, dodge bullets, and collect weapon upgrades. Some stages feature horseback combat, adding faster pacing and different enemy patterns. Progress is linear, with each stage ending in a boss fight before advancing to the next town.

Billy Bob
The bounty hunter controlled by the player, tasked with tracking down outlaws across the frontier.
Keep a safe distance and use the eight-way shot to cover enemies from multiple angles. Prioritize clearing immediate threats before moving forward. In horseback stages, focus on positioning and pre-aiming at spawn points. Protect weapon upgrades whenever possible, since stronger firepower makes later stages much more manageable.
