The game is set in the year 2145. Mankind has spread throughout the galaxy and colonized various planets. Unfortunately, various syndicates and mafias have also risen. You play an unnamed person whose home planet has been taken control of by one of these crime syndicates. You had a company, but the syndicate forced you to pay protection money, and you had to ask them for a "credit". In exchange, they got control over your life. After a while, you decided to live under such conditions, you flee with the rest of your money from the planet. However, the syndicate has sent a hitman after you. Now you're on the moon Hi-Eco-Le and need to earn enough money while avoiding the killer, in order to buy a spaceship and shake off persecutors once and for all.
The game's environment is calculated randomly. It consists of a bunch of locations, both cities, farms or industrial complexes, where you can travel to. You can buy and sell different goods at these places. You can also accept errands like shipping a certain amount of a certain good from one location to the other within a time limit. Travelling between places costs you money, so you need to make sure to make enough money along the way. The game takes place in real-time, and the hitman moves around the map in search of you. You can see his position and on the map, and you need make sure to keep your distance, as the hitman is also faster than you. The game takes the distances between places into account. Since there is no way to cancel a travel between two locations, the hitman can catch up with you if he's close to you.
