There are several ways to take out enemies in Death, Jr. You can use the scythe to perform various close-range combos, you can use guns, or you can use a special move known as a "Pandora assist." The Pandora assist is a special attack that you can use once you fill up the combo meter in the top-right corner of the screen. The gauge features a silhouette of Pandora's head, which fills up as you score hits on enemies or destructible objects. Once her head is full, another meter begins to fill up as you continue to hit things. Once that meter is full, you'll earn one Pandora assist. By pressing circle and triangle simultaneously, you can use a Pandora assist, which instantly kills nearby enemies.

When the scythe just won't cut it, DJ can rely on his guns.
In addition to the scythe and special moves, there are plenty of guns for DJ to use. Each time you complete a level, DJ's friends, Smith and Weston, will give you a new weapon, such as a shotgun, a freeze gun, a flamethrower, a chaingun, and C4 hamsters. The guns are the only way to kill out-of-reach enemies, so you'll be using them often. You can also perform combos using both a gun and the scythe. All of the weapons except the pistols have a limited supply of ammo though, so you have to break open crates to find more.
Crates aren't the only thing you can break, however, as every stage is full of all kinds of destructible objects, such as benches, tables, cars, explosive barrels, and even cows. By destroying everything in sight, you'll earn bonus points, which are factored into the rating you receive at the end of each stage.
When you aren't killing enemies or destroying random objects, you'll be working your way through plenty of platforming challenges. You'll need to jump between floating platforms, swing from hooks and rafters, and perform tricky wall jumps--all of which will be instantly familiar if you've played any other 3D platformers like Rayman or Mario.
