Join Magic Boy as he attempts to become a master wizard, and he does this by shooting enemies, putting them in a bag, and throwing them away. He also must get through four areas: Sand Land, Wet World, Plastic Place, and Future Zone. There are also several power-ups that help him on his quest.
Gameplay involves Magic Boy exploring each area, fighting enemies, collecting power-ups, and solving puzzles to progress. The game features fast-paced action and platforming elements, with an emphasis on shooting and throwing objects at enemies to defeat them.
