In this game, the player's character is a guy named Charley, and the main objective is to reach an ice-cream cone situated at the left portion of the screen before it melts. They must avoid coming into contact with open holes and 4 chefs on the playfield, who are named Angelo, Zorba, Oscar and Jaques. They can be fended off by throwing food at them, such as peas, bananas and watermelons, which the chefs will occasionally use against the character, or having them fall through the holes, into which Charley can fall if the player isn't careful!
