The player must explore various levels of the magical garden "Raisk," each a labyrinth of platforms filled with traps, puzzles, and enemies. The main objective of each level is to find and collect all Pieces of map , which at the end of the level form a clue pointing to the location of the Raven General 's lair.
At the same time, the player must rescue peaceful animals (see Rescuing animals ), which are hidden in various corners of the level: some are in plain sight, while others must be found by solving a short puzzle or using a specific character's unique ability.
The game supports single-screen cooperative play (see Cooperative mode), where a second player can join the adventure at any time. This is the perfect format for parent-child play.
In cooperative play, characters can help each other by combining their abilities to solve complex problems:
- Sparky can move a box so Claws can jump on it and reach a high platform.
- Speedy can squeeze through a narrow gap and press a switch on the other side to open a door for Sparky.
- Claws can carry Speedy across a dangerous chasm with Cat's Throw , while Speedy uses Time Whirlwind to slow incoming projectiles.
This type of gameplay encourages communication and collaborative planning, making level progression even more engaging and social.
The levels are designed for repeated playthroughs. Each character unlocks new paths and opportunities:
- Sparky can push aside a blockage, revealing a passage to a secret cave with little animals.
- Claws can climb a tall tree where a map piece is hidden.
- Speedy can squeeze through a narrow crevice leading to a bonus area.
Therefore, to find ALL the little animals and collect ALL the map pieces, the player will need to complete the same level with different characters.
- For Rescuing animals , collecting Piece of map and Coin , players earn points that can then be exchanged for bonuses (new character skins, funny stories, concept art, and music).
- Initially, only some bonuses can be purchased; the more animals rescued in a level, the more bonuses are unlocked.
- To access the final battle with the Raven General, you must collect a certain number of map fragments, which motivates exploration.
