Players can control Leilas' Furballs by using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Using the analogue stick on the Nunchuk makes Furballs rolling to the left and right and control their flight a bit. The A button makes character jumping. Pressing Z button, choosing direction and shaking the Wii Remote allows to attack Sqauries and other objects. Every Furball has the unique abilities that can be released by B button when the character's level of FurPower is high enough.
