The player can change characters by using one of the transports hidden around the prison and must unlock different sections of the prison by using teleports.
During the game the player must also avoid various traps which include lava pools, needle beams, various creatures, compressor rooms (activated by touching wall sensors) as well as the numerous guards. Energy can be restored by using recharge units located around the prison complex.
