Operation Wolf pits you against a group of terrorists who are holding a number of hostages. You have a first-person perspective of the action as the screen automatically scrolls left to right. Move your gunsight over each target using either a joystick or mouse and take your best shot. Ammunition is limited for your main weapon, a machine gun. Supplies that can be picked up during the levels are: cartridges, rocket grenades, dynamite, power drinks, and super bullets.
There are a total of six levels: Communication Setup, Jungle, Village, Powder Magazine, Concentration Camp, and Airport. Throughout the six levels enemies will come in various forms including: infantry, snipers, armored cars, gunboats, helicopters, and parachutists. Avoid killing civilians, pick up the hostages, and escape from the airport in order to complete Operation Wolf.
