Travel through Max’s deepest and most repressed memories, navigate psychedelic levels, and fight enemies based on Max’s anxieties and fears.

Their images secured by support of Depression are making their way into the depths of his consciousness through the nightmare, meeting Max’s memories on their way, anxieties and bright images.
