A spy infiltrates a building to collect secret documents across 30 levels. Players navigate increasingly complex elevator systems while managing threats from enemy agents that emerge from behind closed doors. Success requires collecting all required documents and descending through the building's floors while using force or evasion to outwit pursuing enemies.
