Each square must be adjacent to an already-completed one, and overshooting an edge or being forced off course clears any progress on the current square. Up to 9 aliens pursue the player, costing a life on contact; completing a level triggers a 10-second bonus phase where the aliens can be eaten for points, Pac-Man style. The game offers 9 speed settings and a 2-player mode.
