The pop culture references and winking toward the camera are so common, you’d think Chai’s eyes would hurt. The tone is not dissimilar from many Dreamcast-era titles, both in aesthetic and story, and the game relishes in this. The game’s story is simple but effective. Along the way, he forges new friendships, uncovers some of Vandelay’s bigger secrets and maybe even finds a greater purpose worth fighting for. Deemed a defect, Chai has to take out the department heads and escape Vandelay’s campus. However, his MP3 player ends up surgically attached to his chest and new arm in the process.
