When a mysterious figure known as the Bird Man kidnaps the girlfriend of Dane's best friend and it seems that the Bird Man has a connection with the murder, Dane is determined to seek him out.
The game is played from Dane's point of view, and it just so happens that Dane is deaf. As a result, 95% of the game is either completely silent or heavily muted.
