You play as a robot named Quote, who wakes up with no memory of his past and must figure out his own backstory. As he starts exploring, he finds new areas, weapons upgrade and solves platforming puzzles to escape from a cave.

In classic 16-bit era games fashion, you engage into a fast-paced gameplay action as Quote to save a race of rabbit-like creatures called Mimigas that are threatened by a mad scientist and seek a way by wandering through its levels.
