The story follows Edward Carnby and Aline Cedrac as they investigate the mysterious death of Edward's friend on Shadow Island. Players pick one of the two protagonists at the start, and each character follows a separate path through the island's haunted mansion, caves, and shadowy corridors. The game uses pre-rendered backgrounds combined with 3D character models, a presentation style popular in horror titles of that era. A clever lighting system sits at the heart of the experience, since most enemies are creatures of darkness who recoil from any source of light.

The standout feature is the Groove system, which lets fighters choose from six fighting styles based on classic Capcom and SNK games.

This choice gives the game a layer of strategy that sets it apart from other fighters of its era and rewards players who study each style carefully.

The faster the delivery, the bigger the tip, and reckless driving through traffic, shortcuts, and oncoming cars rewards bold play. The biggest new addition is the Crazy Hop, a jump move that lets cabs leap over walls, buildings, and gaps to reach areas closed off in the original. Drivers can also collect multiple passengers at once with the Multi Pick system, juggling several drop offs in a single trip for bigger payouts.

The game runs in fictional American cities filled with traffic, ramps, shortcuts, and bright, sunny streets that capture a late nineties California vibe.
