It also featured a theme revolving around space exploration and occasional full-motion video cut scenes. The game was notable for being an early example of extensive voice recording in video games. The Saturn version features light gun support for the shooting segments. The console versions of the game all include support for their respective mouse peripherals. There are numerous puzzles in the game, including an event where the player must dismantle a bomb by following their partner's instructions. The player can use the shooting trainer at the police department to test their reflex and accuracy. Like in Snatcher, the game features shooting segments where the player must defend their character from incoming enemies.
