Game Info: You play Alias Node, a human on Armpit VI, a dismal backwater mining planet where an ore called Uptite is mined and refined into Upshot. Armpit VI is a "company planet", so all government functions are controlled by the corporation, Amalgamated Vacuum. You are a member of the Amalgamated Vacuum Security Force (AVSF) - a company cop.

After 15 uneventful years on the force, you receive your first big break. There has been a break-in at Corporate HQ and some top-secret industrial secrets have been stolen. The thief is hiding out in a spaceport dive called The Thirsty Tentacle. You and your partner, Maksh, are the only ones who can get to the bar and apprehend the criminal before he can catch the next shuttle offworld. The only catch: the thief could be any one of the dozens of seedy characters in the bar.

As an AVSF member, you are trained in an interrogation technique called Empathy Telepathy. If you talk to a suspect long enough, and engage him/her/it on an emotional level, you can enter that character's memories and relive a memory through that character's eyes.

Each of these "emp-tel" flashbacks is like a small adventure game, with its own story and challenges. In addition, when you complete each of these flashbacks, you will learn a clue that will help you solve the mystery that faces you back in The Thirsty Tentacle.
