Nuclear Throne is a top-down shooter action game. The game consists of two main game modes, single-player, and a local co-operative gameplay mode. The player controls one of a total of 12 characters, 10 of which must be unlocked through play. Two additional secret characters can only be played under special circumstances during play. Each character has an ability unique to them, adding an additional element to the gameplay while keeping the game simplistic.

The game resets upon death. Anything acquired in one play-through does not carry over to the next. The game has a leveling system that allows to get different mutations and choose what would benefit the character the most out of a selection of four, randomly selected mutations.

The main aspect of the game is weapons. The player starts with the basic revolver, but they may upgrade by taking weapons from red chests and collect more ammunition by opening yellow ones. The player can have two weapons equipped at any time, such as a shovel and an assault rifle.
