Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger is a side-scrolling action game in which the player takes control of a different Zyuranger in each of the game's five stages. The game includes two difficulty settings and a password feature. Rangers begin stages wielding the standard Ranger Gun which can be replaced with the character's corresponding Legendary Weapon. At the end of each stage, the player will confront one of Evil Witch Bandora's henchman and ultimately Bandora herself. Between stages Dragon Ranger offers players the chance to play one of three minigames. These consist of a trivia game where Bandora will ask the player questions about the TV series, a Pong-style game between Daizyuzin and Caesar, and a hot potato-style game between Zyutei Daizyuzin and Lamy. These minigames are also accessible from the main menu and can be played with a second player.
