When a special ability is used, it cannot be used again until it recharges. These comic covers are not required to clear the game, but if the player collects all five and then clears the game, they unlock special abilities that can be used on subsequent playthroughs.
In addition to the comic pages required to clear the game, each level also has a comic book cover for players to collect. When the player's health bar is empty, they get a game over they can start the level over without having to start the whole game over, but their total score drops to zero. The level is cleared when the player collects all five comic pages (ten pages in levels 3 and 4, seven reflector shards in level 5). Pickups in the game include health, energy for the player's Pony Power meter, Double Points to momentarily double the player's acquisition of score points, Bonus Time to take several seconds off the player's time spent in the level, and a speed boost power-up. Hum Drum (Level 5): summons Fluttershy/Saddle Rager to slam on the ground.Mistress Mare-velous (Level 4): throws a "hoofarang".Radiance (Level 3): creates an energy cage.Masked Matterhorn (Level 1): shoots a fireball.Super attacks also vary between characters: Super attacks have much farther range than regular attacks (reaching enemies across the screen) but expend "Pony Power" (the energy meter below the player's health bar). The player can also attack enemies with super attacks by pressing the Shift key. Spike/Hum Drum (Level 5): summons Pinkie Pie/Fili-Second to tackle enemies.Applejack/Mistress Mare-velous (Level 4): whips enemies with her lasso.
Rarity/Radiance (Level 3): stuns enemies with gem-shaped attack constructs.Rainbow Dash/Zapp (Level 2): zaps enemies with a bolt of lightning.Twilight Sparkle/Masked Matterhorn (Level 1): freezes enemies with her freeze ray.
Attacks vary depending on the character the player is in control of: The player can move up, down, left, and right with the arrow keys and attack enemies with the spacebar. The objective is to collect a number of comic pages in a 3D maze-like environment populated by enemies (the Mane-iac's henchponies, including soldiers, officers, and captains). In each level of the game, the player controls one of the main cast.
