"Plok!" has two difficulty modes: "Normal" which is the entire game, and "Child's Play" which omits the harder stages and decreases the speed and hit points of enemies. "Plokontinues" are earned if four P-L-O-K tokens are collected, and a token is garnered if a level is finished without dying; if a Game Over occurs, the player will restart with a 0 score, three lives, and at the place the Plokontinue was received. Saving is limited to two "Permanent Continue Positions" after the completion of Bobbins Brothers and Rockyfella boss fights which the player can go back to every time the game is reset, and there is no password feature.
