The game supports two players alternating.At the start of each level, the player must choose between four quadrants, each one corresponding to one of the sub-games. The sub-game in each quadrant is not known to the player until it is selected - if the player fails the game and loses a life, he/she is taken back to this selection screen and an icon representing that game is now visible.The sub-games are as follows:I/O TowerThe player must guide Tron to the flashing circle of an Input/Output tower within a set time limit while avoiding or destroying Grid Bugs. This game is based on the I/O Tower scene in the film, while adding the Grid Bugs as enemies (which were only briefly mentioned in the film).MCP ConeThe player must break through a rotating shield wall protecting the MCP cone and enter the cone without touching any of the shield blocks. This game is based on Tron's final battle with the MCP in the film, but changes the nature of the MCP's shield.Light CyclesIn a player-vs-AI variant of the game concept, the player guides Tron's blue in an arena against one or more yellow opponents.

The tank can warp to a random location in the maze by moving into a diamond in the center. In higher difficulty levels, the enemy tanks are replaced by red Recognizers that are much faster and attempt to collide with the player instead of shooting at him/her.
