New critters are introduced as the player progresses, with Pork N Bean making an appearance in higher levels. The player will overcome each enemy using a different tactic including jumping, waiting or running. Touching an enemy causes Puppyman to lose bones and reduce the overall score for the level. Some enemies will chase Puppyman causing him to miss collecting his treasures. Avoid the critters, save Pork N Bean, and collect all bounty to achieve the highest possible score.
