Zephulor is a game that resembles an arcade game.
The main objective of the game is to find power-ups and hidden areas whilst dodging or defeating alien monsters that are eager to destroy the player. Within this game, several pathways lead to different levels, offering the player distinct experiences. Furthermore, various secret areas are scattered throughout the levels.
The game does not include lives or continues. In the instance that the player dies, they will restart the level from the beginning. Additionally, creatures and power-ups remain persistent throughout the level even if the player dies.
