Traditionally, in the single-player mode, the player runs a gauntlet of characters in the game (which may include one's doppelgänger) all the way to the final boss. Its control scheme is simple, using only a control stick and 3 buttons (Punch, Kick, Guard) however, through various timings, positions, and button combinations, players unlocked a bevy of moves for each character.

In this fourth round, players fight on a small stage wherein one hit equals victory. A fourth round is necessary if a double knockout (both players knocking each other out at the same time) occurred in a previous round and the match is tied one round each. If a character is knocked out (or falls out) of the ring, the opponent wins the round. The basic gameplay involves two combatants needing to win two of three rounds, with each round being 30 seconds long or more. The first game is widely recognized as the first 3D fighting game ever released.
