The game plays as a top-view action-adventure game (similar to the Legend of Zelda) though it is separated by stages. In each level Goemon must find three passes in order to advance. Some of these passes are found in boxes, secret passages or can be bought. Like the rest of the series, Goemon can be powered up if certain items are found and/or bought, which can be lost after a few hits. | The game plays as a top-view action-adventure game (similar to the Legend of Zelda) though it is separated by stages.

The | The MSX2 version features crisper graphics, but presents each screen as a static scene instead of scrolling them horizontally. It has the option to be played by turns by two players, with the second player playing as a ninja named Nezumi Kozō, which is the basis of Goemon's sidekick Ebisumaru. In addition, unlike the Famicom version, the game has 6 more provinces with completely new levels after finishing the game once. | ||
