The compilation contains two separate games selected from the title screen. Both use a primarily side-scrolling perspective, but their objectives and level mechanics differ according to the film adaptation.

Players move through linear stages, avoid hazards, collect items, solve simple environmental obstacles, and complete scene-based objectives. Progress is made by clearing stages in sequence; the exact playable characters, abilities, and control emphasis vary between Monsters, Inc. and Finding Nemo.

Learn the hazards in each stage before rushing forward. The two included games use different objectives, so treat collectible routes and enemy encounters separately.

• Search side paths for useful items, but do not trade health for low-value collectibles.
• Use the environment to create safe openings around enemies and hazards.
• Preserve lives and health for the final sections of longer stages.
