Players can move Mika left and right using the left and right arrow keys and the up key to jump as Carassa throws down items which they must catch before they fall. If five items are dropped in any one level the game ends. Besides regular items there are hazards which the user must avoid, such as the bomb which will stun Mika for a few seconds, not allowing him to pick up any items, and the piano, which instantly ends the game if it falls on him.
In this game, the player takes control of Mika.  The player can move Mika left and right using the left and right arrow keys and they can make him jump by pressing the up arrow key.  The game is divided into rounds, and each round is 30 seconds long.  Right after a round begins, Carassa will start dropping items.  The player can earn points by catching the items that Carassa drops.  The number of points earned depends on the item that is caught:
