In Pandorum, players control the game's main character, Corporal Bower, on his quest to explore different parts of the spaceship Elysium in a 360-degree 3D view. The game uses dual stick controls to move and look around. Buttons on the screen allow players to attack and to switch weapons as well as to access various menus. The game consists of 5 missions in which players must solve puzzles and defeat various monsters in order to advance through the game. Weapons, healing items and other bonus items are scattered throughout the spaceship and must be retrieved during Corporal Bower's journey. Included in the overall game is a mini-game puzzle that involves connecting electrical circuits by creating the correct path which when solved will provide the charge to unlock certain doors. Throughout the game, up to 10 medals are awarded based on performance during missions. Upgrade packages are also available in the game for weapon upgrades, unlimited ammo and a more protective suit for Corporal Bower.

The goal of the game is to escape the spaceship and reveal its secrets in order to save the human race. The story is told through cutscenes as well as journal entries that can be found in the ship.
