Rusty Rangers takes the player to intricate locations with a constantly changing structure and hidden routes. Each run begins with choosing one of the available rangers, who have different skills and types of weapons. As you move through a chain of rooms with traps, enemies and secret areas, precise calculation of movements and attention is required. Meetings with strong enemies placed deep in the levels do not forgive mistakes. Checkpoints are rare, forcing you to maintain concentration until the end of each attempt.
