The player controls a character referred to as a carpenter[4] who resembles Mario from the original Donkey Kong. Much like Amidar, the objective is to color the lines around all the rectangles, except in Triple Punch the game board is larger than the screen and scrolls horizontally.[2] Completing multiple rectangles at the same time doubles or triples the bonus.
Four enemies chase the player: an eraser, a ghost ("Ottobake"), a gorilla ("Gorigon"), and a fire.[5] The eraser removes already painted lines. The eraser, ghost, and gorilla can be knocked out with three punches in rapid succession, then an ambulance takes them away. The fire is always deadly.
