Super Wings: Jett Run features robot characters resembling airplanes who fulfill a straightforward function: moving from one location to another. Players must assist them in overcoming each level's obstacles— such as running through extreme challenges and sharp reflexes — before they arrive at their destination. This game borrows a control method from other similar games. The player observes and performs simple swipes to play the game. They also need to navigate around obstacles and follow the tutorial's suggestions for each one. This leads to new mechanics, such as character health and the distance players need to travel.

When beginning the level of Super Wings: Jett Run, you are treated to an unexpected transformation when playing as the robot controlled character. You then discover that the game has many differences from other games. These include a flight mechanic and a map with three locations that force the player to go there. From there, players can access information and images about these locations and start the level. This game features unique features than other games in the same genre. This is because the goal is different based on how far the player needs to travel. If a player wants to complete the mission, they need to travel that distance and talk to a specific audience. Even if someone fails a run, they can continue traveling because they've encountered a roadblock. In addition, the game allows players to attempt multiple runs. Many games end up going on endlessly due to their inclusion of an infinitesimally small glitch. If this glitch is hit, the game must display a stop prompt. Any further attempts at playing the game after this prompt are futile as the player only has a health bar. When this health bar reaches zero, failure will ensue. If a better character is acquired, then players have a chance to maintain their current level.

Upgrades in Super Wings: Jett Run provide many benefits for the characters that players choose. Each character has an important stat that players need to keep up; players can choose which one to improve. Players receive the ability to continue upgrading their characters when they choose to improve one stat over the other. This allows them to use more than one robot character at once— so they can continue upgrading one of their stats while using another. Characters in this game gain the power to turn into something else. This is first demonstrated when they collect road boosters before later assembling a larger piece of their body. Some characters can become vehicles or mechanical giants thanks to this ability. Once they achieve this power, they no longer face obstacles that halt their progress. During the delivery mission, players travel alongside interesting characters. Robots with the shape of planes will traverse obstacles while completing delivery missions. After running a certain distance on a delivery mission, the player needs to deliver the item to a specific location. The health bar system gives players additional chances to survive by allowing them to bounce off of obstacles multiple times before failing. The fast-paced action won’t distract players with selective stats available in the robotic companions. Players discover booster cards that facilitate the creation of powerful transitions between vehicles and the transformation of robots into destructive machines.
