While some controls have been changed in the DSiWare version to better suit the Nintendo DSi system, the appearance of the game itself has not been altered.

Memorize the order in which flags are raised, then raise them in the same order (GAME A) or raise the correct flag according to the corresponding number (GAME B). Earn one point each time you raise the correct flag, but lose one of your remaining tries if you raise a flag out of order or if you let the time bar run out.

Gameplay

The player has to press buttons that correspond with the number shown to make the flagman either hold a flag or show his feet. The better the player gets at the game, the harder the game gets.
