Gameplay

The game uses timed platform game sequences.[4] Power-ups include the famous Coca-Cola soft drink that helps restore health and the coins that helps the player buy items between stages.[4]

Each stage has a 9:59 time limit. Attacks in the games include kicks and flying kicks.[5] Obstacles, like the telephone booths in the downtown level, can also be torn down.[5]
