Gameplay
In the single-player mode, the player takes on the role of Conker and plays the game in a free-roaming environment. Conker can Jump while Crouching to gain high vertical distance, as well as jump more than twice his height in any direction. Conker can also spin his tail around quickly like a helicopter for a few seconds. Rather than give it an official-sounding name, as is the unofficial 'tradition' in the video game business, Conker just calls it the Helicoptery-tail Thingy". This allows him to jump a little higher, navigate in the air to accurately land, and slow his descent if he is far up from the ground. After a few seconds, the tail slows down, and he drops and is not able to do it again until he has landed and jumped again. Besides this, he has few other physical powers. He can Swim underwater for a while until he runs out of breath, jog indefinitely and not get tired, and is strong enough to push heavy objects, which in one of the later levels are The Big Big Guy's testicles.

Conker can eat pieces of "Anti-Gravity Chocolate" to regain lost health; his life bar is represented by six-square chocolate bars. In a parody of similar platforms with unexplained floating pickups throughout levels, they were originally created by Professor von Kriplespac, but he threw them out the castle window when he started a new project. Conker can carry six blocks of chocolate health at maximum capacity. There are two types of chocolate: regenerative chocolate and one-time chocolate. Regenerative chocolate reappears 10 seconds after being eaten. One-time chocolate disappears after eaten, and doesn't reappear until Conker reenters the game world. Anti-gravity chocolate does not provide protection against certain things, such as falls from especially high heights, being hit by spinning blades, or being dismembered in the grinder of Count Batula's Mansion. However, it does protect against being hit with a heavy object from above, such as a large dollop of feces from The Great Mighty Poo.

Conker has a limited number of lives. The ability to do this in the context of the game is explained in a cut scene the first time that Conker dies; according to Gregg the Grim Reaper, squirrels have as many lives as "they think they can get away with," similar to cats, which Gregg is willing to grant Conker another chance if he picks up Squirrel Tails. "Context-sensitive Zones" allow Conker to do things he could not normally do; he usually pulls a far-too-big thing out of his far-too-small pocket, although sometimes he turns into an Anvil and slams into the ground. Zones under beer kegs can give him drunken abilities as well. For instance, he is able to stagger around and urinate on Fire Imps and Rock People. Although most zones only work once, some can be used more than once, or even indefinitely. However, most of the context zones lose their purpose after being utilized, even if they are continuously usable. These context-sensitive areas usually take the form of "B-button pads", and sometimes activate while Conker is in mid-air. However, they are always activated by a press of the B Button. A light bulb appears over Conker's head when he is in a context-sensitive zone. Gameplay in Conker's Bad Fur Day features parodies of various movies and games, such as A Clockwork Orange, The Terminator, The Wizard of Oz, Star Wars, Saving Private Ryan, Reservoir Dogs, and Super Mario 64.

The game has a lot of strong language in it, but only censors a few words, with the subtitles of the speech containing the word being red flashing symbols, like skulls, spirals and lightning. More words are censored in the Xbox remake, most notably "shit".
