The Star Ship games (game variations 1 through 9) cast the right player as the captain of a star ship cruiser on a mission to eradicate any and all hostile encounters. It's kill or be killed because if you don't shoot your target, or get out of its way in time, you will collide and lose precious seconds. You only have two minutes and 16 seconds to get as high a score as possible. New targets appear as soon as old ones are removed, so eliminate them quickly to achieve higher scores.

The Warp Drive games (game variations 10 and 11) have one single goal: Go as far and as fast as possible through an asteroid field in two minutes and 16 seconds. The fire button becomes a thruster, and the longer you press it, the faster you go. Dodge the asteroid clusters or you lose a unit of distance covered.
