Each level has its own elemental setting, taking in the fires of Hell and the clouds and light of Heaven. The levels are full of boxes, which can be used as weapons by kicking them at enemies.
As you go you can also collect money, which can be spent in shops to buy useful extras.

Air Supply is a vertically scrolling shooter. Besides shooting enemies (mostly small but numerous), the player has to drop supply units on especially marked places. However, the number of carried packages is limited and therefore the aircraft has to land on airports to stock up on them; it is also possible to turn in order to reach missed spots. After those duties are carried out, the player proceeds with destroying the enemy's fort, playing a horizontally scrolling bonus level and starting the next of overall ten stages. Flying around constantly drains fuel which can be filled by picking up extra fuel left behind by dead enemies. They also drop other upgrades like smart bombs or protective shields.
Computer quiz game. The players travel around a zig-zagging pathway, answering questions as they go. There are coins to pick up and fruit to collect, and special square like ‘kicker’ which send you flying off in the wrong direction or ‘blockers’ which get in your way.
Every few seconds the path moves to the left, taking you further from the ‘Win bar and closer to the ‘Lose’ bar, so every second counts if you want to win.
The map consists of 150 screens with a labyrinthine structure. There are two well differentiated areas: the forest and the city. In the first one are the gods whom you must find to find out the order of the tests to be carried out. In the second the main development of the adventure will take place. There will be the objects treasured by Erik, guarded by innumerable dangers.
In your mission you will spend a lot of strength, so there are some food, shields and axes so that you can move forward without falling in the attempt.
Fed up with having Brontosaurus steaks for dinner, Ug the Caveman has decided to try something new for a change - by navigating nine islands in search of the three pterodactyl eggs perched high in the mountains, and bringing them back to his cave one by one, making sure that not one egg breaks along the way. Unfortunately, searching for the eggs comes at a price.
Ug must also leap across rivers, dodge erupting volcanoes, and use a number of rocks to kill any land-based predators that get in his way. If he comes into contact with any of these, he will lose some energy, which can be restored by collecting fruit. Once Ug has taken all three eggs to his cave, he has to collect some wheels so that he can travel to the next island.
