Plot

The game begins with a cinematic where a sarcastic, ghostly theme park owner by the name of Dr. Dearth (Randy Polk) explains all the info about the game, and mysteriously vanishes. You are then directed to the game.

Gameplay

The objective of the game is to accumulate the needed number of points to advance to the next level. Points are scored by shooting down targets. Tombstones appear to block the player's attacks. After either beating or losing a level, Dr. Dearth will either comment or criticize your progress.

Sequel

This game was followed by a 1993 sequel, Mystic Midway: Phantom Express.
