The gameplay involves navigating through the underwater environment, avoiding obstacles while trying to collect as much treasure as possible. You'll need to manage your oxygen supply carefully, as running out will result in loss of life. You can use a special button to increase your movement speed, but this will come at a higher cost to your oxygen levels.
Up to four players can compete in hot-seat mode, with the option to choose their own number of lives from one to nine. There is also a tournament level mode for high-score verification, where each player controls four divers.
