About

Game Over

On her journey through Evernow, Miko Otomo meets a character who appears to be her father Hachiro in a new level. "Hachiro" explains that he only a creation of the real Hachiro's, there to guide Miko on her journey to rescue the "Master of Time and Space", who is trapped inside the Eternal Fortress. In the real world, Richard Schwenkman creates a cloaking system that conceals the fortress before Miko can get to it. Miko memorizes the symbol on the fortress's flags and returns to the real world to show Ren. Ren searches for similar images using an internet search engine, and finds that the symbol matches that of Renautas's research division. Ren and Miko travel there, and Miko re-enters Evernow to find herself in front of the Eternal Fortress, guarded by the towering Kaiju Bandit.

Miko returns to the real world to tell Ren about the bandit guarding the fortress, and Ren offers to boot up the game to help her with his character. They kill the bandit together, but Ren's laptop battery runs out so Miko enters the fortress alone. Once inside, Miko is attacked by a dark version of herself. During their duel, Dark Miko reveals that if Miko frees the Master of Time and Space, the game will end and she will die. Miko decides that if true, that is a price she must pay, and slays her counterpart before opening the door to Hiro's cell. Evernow shuts down and Hiro returns to the real world, having been freed from his virtual prison.
