Gameplay

Players move a small triangle around the grid, while attempting to avoid the diamonds that are also moving around the grid. Reaching the end of the grid teleports the player back to the front of the grid to gain points. The game is played on a 3x10 grid that is displayed at angle to make it appear to be in 3-D.^[2]
