The game character is a ball able to jump over one or two steps. The player's goal is to pick up all the diamonds and then find the way to the next level.The Full version includes the following episodes: Arcade, Adventure and Puzzle.

The player needs to explore and pass large and complex labyrinths with various obstacles and monsters to fight with. The Puzzle episode features levels where you need to calculate precisely every jump of the ball. Otherwise, you can get into a trap. Steps and barriers: Ordinary Step is a most common type of steps in the game; Vanishing Step is a step that disappears after touched by the ball once; Picket Step is dangerous because of the pickets it has; Temporary Barrier is a barrier that can be destroyed when hit twice by the ball; Fire Step when touched by the ball once, it takes fire and doesn't let the ball jump on it for some time.
