Exterminator turns everyday pest control into an action-packed game. Chicago is under siege by mutated insects, rats, and even toy tanks, and the player must clear out seven houses, each with typical rooms. Controlling a seemingly disembodied hand, the goal is to fend off the oncoming creatures using different attacks — shooting, thumping, or squashing, depending on the enemy type. To clear a room, a set number of pests must be eliminated in each vertically divided lane, changing the color of the floor tiles as progress is made.
