The player controls a ship that can move in eight directions. The ship can fire to both the front and rear. Each round consists of a number of green space stations that must be destroyed to advance to the next. All space stations are alike: each one consists of six cannons arranged in a hexagon, surrounding a red core in the center (accessible either horizontally or vertically, depending on how the station was placed). A station is destroyed by either destroying all six cannons or shooting the core. In later levels, the core begins shooting missiles and can protect itself with a closing door. | The player controls a ship that can move in eight directions.
