A player can score a bonus in each round by touching all 24 bombs in the correct lit-fuse sequence. As soon as he has touched the first, he triggers a sequence in which another bomb's fuse lights up, and so on. Jack 'defuses' the bombs by simply touching them. Eventually, the levels reoccur a number of times with increasing difficulty. Each screen uses a different configuration of platforms upon which Jack may run on, or jump from, or remain at rest. Jack must fly around the screen to collect the bombs before a timer runs out. Someone has planted 24 bombs at famous tourist sites (the Sphinx and Great Pyramids, the Acropolis, Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, and two cityscapes resembling Miami Beach and Hollywood, which appear only as screen backgrounds rather than unique game locations). The player controls Jack, a superhero who can leap and glide.
