In February of the year 2000, a seemingly peaceful city was abruptly invaded by menacing beings. Two agents from the AMS, named James Taylor and Gary Stewart, were dispatched to examine the disturbance. Upon their arrival, they observed that the predicament bore striking similarities to the Curien Mansion event of 1998. Eager to discover the origin of the infestation, they commenced clearing a path through swarms of these creatures by firing at them.

The team at Forever Entertainment also detailed the game modes:

In our critique of the reboot of the original game, we expressed: “The creators have suggested a potential accessory to enhance the authenticity, which would be fantastic. There are numerous sequels to the High on the Dragon series that could possibly be adapted – let’s keep our fingers crossed for more journeys with G and the team in the future.
