Controls[edit]
- Joystick: Use the 8-way joystick, to direct Grobda around each of the ninety-nine arenas. It starts out rather slowly at the beginning, but will increase speed as the game progresses.
- Firing Button: Use this button to make Grobda fire shots at the enemies (it did could not do this in Xevious). Firing will have no effect on the Energy Gauge at the bottom of the screen.
- Shield Button: Use this button to activate Grobda's shield. Unlike firing, activating the shield will slowly drain the Energy Gauge at the bottom of the screen and eventually empty it out.
- 1 or 2 Player Buttons: Push these buttons to begin a 1 or 2 player game.

Grobda[edit]
The protagonist of the game. In its only appearance as a heroic character, its goal is to kill every enemy in all ninety-nine arenas of the game.
