There are 2 playable characters: Windia (Wind Magic) and Casper (Death Magic).

There are 8 stages in total, with one being optional. After selecting a character, you can choose from one set of three stages: the Port Town, The Forest of the Lost, and the Lake Shore.
After completing any level from the first set, a second set of levels, the Graveyard, the Swamp Wastes, and the Volcano, appears, and a level must be completed there in order to access a level from the first set again.

After all 6 initial levels are completed, players can either play a difficult extra level, the Gorge, or head straight to the final level, Hades Castle.

There is also a unique approach to difficulty in this game. Before a stage starts, you must pick between 3 levels of difficulty.

Level 1 difficulty features easier patterns and gives players 3 bombs per life while Level 3 difficulty features suicide bullets that are fired toward you after defeating an enemy, as well as one bomb being given per life.

Players have 3 main attacks: a standard shot, a more focused shot, and a "Targeting Area" that locks onto enemies that enter the area.
Tapping the shot buttons will produce a standard shot. Holding either shot buttons will slow down your character for more accurate dodging, and your companion fighter will fire projectiles that will pierce enemies, dealing more damage.
Holding down both shot buttons will create a "Targeting Area", and any enemy that enters the area will be destroyed.
The Targeting Area will decrease your item counter on the bottom left side of the screen. Unlike other shoot 'em ups, you are given 2 shot buttons to fire either to your left or your right, as enemies can arrive from either direction of the screen.

This game also uses a life bar instead of a traditional lives system. When the game begins, the player has a maximum of 3 life bars. Colliding with an enemy will remove one half of the life bar, and colliding with a bullet will remove 1 life bar. When all 3 life bars are depleted, the game ends and the continue screen is shown. Life-restoring parfaits can be found in levels on higher difficulties and extra life bars are obtained at 20 and 40 million points.
