The player chooses of one of the three Galactic Warrior Rats who pilot a biosphere vehicle. The biosphere can have its speed, weapons, ammunition and handling upgraded. Upgrades require credits. During the gameplay, the player will maneuver the rat in his biosphere. The object is to guide the biosphere through maze-like levels to the exit. The biosphere can fire in one of eight directions. Destroying enemies earns credits. Touching enemies drains the biosphere's vitality. If one rat dies in the biosphere explosion, the player must choose a different rat to play. If all three rats are destroyed, then the game is over.
