The player plays as an alarm clock who must, ironically, wake up the mechanical pidgeon sleeping inside an old man's cuckoo clock at the right time. Each night, the pidgeon requests a specific time for the player to wake up. A beat is then counted off, and the clock starts ticking from 1 o'clock. After roughly four beats, the screen fades out, requiring the player to count on their own. When the needed time is reached, the player must stop the clock. The pidgeon then wakes up and checks the time.

This gets mixed up in various ways as the game progresses: sometimes the pidgeon requests a time off the hour, and later on the music may cut out entirely. Sometimes, the music is played in swing rhythm, as well.

*Inputting the code word {{Nihongo|CLOCKWORK}} in [[Police Call]] gives the player a tip about there being a code word in this game (the word is {{Nihongo|BOUTS}}: every so often the flowers bloom with a letter on them, spelling it out). The code word can be put into [[Police Call]] for an easter egg.
