The player first selects the type of habitat they want to play with. They then must pick from a random group of cartoon organisms most common to that particular habitat. Players can get from the program informational clues about the organisms. Additionally players can use a button to take the player to the World Wide Web to get information about the organism online. The player is rewarded with a comic about that habitat every time they correctly place four organisms and click the reward button. Habitats can be played multiple times before all the organisms are correctly matched.
