In WireWay players utilize the touch-screen capabilities as they avoid dangerous obstacles - including falling rocks, eerie skulls, and spiky floors - while they flick the alien with the wire using the stylus, rub the screen to create wind, and draw wires to assist the alien. As they break walls, open new paths, and collect stars to power up, players have as much time as they need to avoid the enemies and help the alien find his way home. Additionally, gamers can challenge up to four players wirelessly for an intense multiplayer race using the local wireless feature.
