You play pizza tower game by moving through the previously described floors of the Pizza Tower, gathering pizza toppings and cartoon Toppins as you go. Cheesy adversaries abound throughout the tower's different levels, trying to stop Peppino in his tracks. The player must race to the top of the level as it starts to collapse with a countdown that causes Pizzaface to wake up after taking out the level's Pillar John, which truly supports the entire level.
