Both playable characters are armed with yo-yos but can also upgrade to other weapons (such as throwing stars, icicle daggers and guided missiles) to defeat all enemies and help them open treasure chests.

After Data East became defunct due to its bankruptcy in 2003, G-Mode bought the intellectual rights to the Neo Geo game, as well as most other Data East games, and licenses them globally.
