The game has Link battle his way past [[Stalfos]], [[Ghini]], and [[Moblin]] enemies on the lower screen, using the various items he can find, such as a Tomahawk, a map, and the Water of Life. Once he clears all the enemies, he will proceed to fight the dragon on the top screen. A tomahawk could be gained and used for increased damage. The game plays more like a platformer, similar to ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''. When Link uses his sword, the shield goes to his back to block attacks, adding a level of strategy to fighting.

*In the instruction manual, Stalfos is the only enemy referred to by its official name. Moblins are simply called "Goblins" and Ghinis are "Ghosts", though their artwork significantly resembles their NES counterparts. It's possible the dragons are meant to be [[Aquamentus]], though the resemblance is less apparent.
