The player controls a gliding motorcycle-like vehicle, bumping other riders, collecting power modules and collecting blue people who are stranded. A second area removes the riders and adds rough terrain, while the final leg features a battle with one or more dinosaur tanks, which launch their heads when destroyed. The sequence repeats infinitely, getting progressively difficult.
