The earlier zones in the game can only be cleared by first defeating specific Water Buffalo members (most of which appeared at some point in the cartoon series) by winning them in a race located at a stadium. Unlike the TV show, Dino actually hurts the player if he is hit by him. In a few cases, a power-up is a trap in which the Cavemouse appears, being followed by Dino.

There are also power-ups such as brontoburger (energy) and clams (in-game currency). There is an overall difficulty level of 'medium' to the game providing frequent breaks from the low-difficulty horizontal scrolling action stages with mini-games that have a high level of difficulty. In order to defeat enemies, Fred and Barney use a wood club. In these segments, the characters must traverse from left to right (and sometimes right to left), while avoiding hazards and defeating dinosaurs, Water Buffalo members or other creatures. The levels themselves are simple platformer segments. Moving the players in the game is similar to playing a Japanese sugoroku board game. On some zones, Wilma and Betty appear and if any one of them manage to meet their respective husband, she will drag him some spaces back to an arbitrary location. Depending on the landed space, the player must clear a level in that particular world, defeat bosses, or enter shops, among other things.

Rolling the dice results in either Fred or Barney moving to the appropriate space on the board. The game itself first involves a world map representing a themed set of worlds. Barney has encountered his wife Betty, who drags him back to a previous location on the map.
