This is a 2D action platformer in which players assume the role of Sorun, an agent of death battling his way through the afterlife. From a side-scrolling perspective, players traverse platforms while using scythes, swords, axes, and daggers to kill monsters and boss characters. Enemies emit splashes of blood when struck, and a handful of enemies burst into pieces when defeated. Cutscenes and backgrounds sometimes depict battlefields with corpses laying in pools of blood or dead soldiers impaled on spears. During the course of the game, players can obtain a brew item, which is depicted as a frothy mug in players' inventory; a rat can also be seen hiccupping and swaying while holding a bottle. The word “sh*te” appears in the game.
