The central hub for the game is Haven City, a bustling metropolis with maze-like streets. There are pedestrians at ground level and zoomers flying around just above their heads, so avoiding traffic is a major concern. The main obstacles here though are the Krimzon Guard. While they will usually just ignore you, if you do anything to injure one of them or damage one of their vehicles they will go into alert mode and attack you on sight. If you can avoid them though, they will eventually lose track of you and return to their usual patrol mode. | The central hub for the game is Haven City, a bustling metropolis with maze-like streets.

Around midway through the game you obtain the Hoverboard. This gives the game a Tony Hawk style skateboarding element, though it hovers in the air as in Back to the Future II. It greatly improves your mobility and many of the later missions require shredding and grinding, so some skill with the Hoverboard is necessary to complete the game. | |||
Progression through the game is mission based, meaning you are given certain missions to complete and doing so earns you rewards, allows you to explore new areas, and triggers additional missions. Some missions occur within Haven City, but most take place in additional levels, usually in the wilderness outside the city. | Progression through the game is mission based, meaning you are given certain missions to complete and doing so earns you rewards, allows you to explore new areas, and triggers additional missions.
