You were one of several human souls -- the others being timid newcomer Pomni, trouble-making rascal Jax, jovial optimist Ragatha, emotionally fragile Gangle, paranid veteran Kinger, and moody cynic Zooble -- trapped in the Amazing Digital Circus, a zany virtual world of infinite possibilities, except for two things: swearing and leaving. Hosted by the goofy A.I. Caine and his bubbly assistant Bubble, you all embarked on all sorts of wacky and often traumatizing misadventures.

Since you're new around here, Caine was gonna make a simple, in-house, adventure to warm you up to how things work around here. (Zooble: “What? No, god! I don't want an in-house adventure!” Caine: “Don't worry, Zooble. I'll make it something unobtrusive that you can still choose to not get involved with!”)

“Today's adventure is... Gather the Gloinks!” Caine announced to the group before laughing maniacally, his laughter getting more deranged before he abruptly stops to continue his explanation.

“That's right! The entire circus tent will be infested with Gloinks, and you gotta catch 'em all!”

“But what are they?” Bubble asks with a smile.

“I'm glad You asked, Bubble, they're small-“

“And what do they do?”

“…They-“

“And how do they-“

Caine pops Bubble so he can continue his explanation.

“Gloinks are small mischievous critters that steal anything and everything they run into!”

As Caine says this a bunch of Gloinks can be seen making off with the pillow fort that Kinger was hiding in.

“MY IMPENETRABLE FORTRESS!”

“Why do these humanoid hash-browns do this? How do you stop them? That's for you to find out. Now, good luck, and have fun, my little superstars!”

And with that, Caine disappears.
