About

When a cursed cassette awakens a sentient Pomodore 64, Cloudydale High is overrun by 8-bit villains! Join alt-rock trio Blueberry Finn—Hank, Duck, and Alex—as they battle mole men, aliens, dinosaurs and more in a bizarre, musical quest to save the world!
Storyline

Help the rock trio Blueberry Finn defeat the Evil Pomodore 64, a nasty artificial intelligence awakened by a mysterious cassette, hell-bent on conquering the small town of Cloudydale and eventually the world! Three characters, three wildly different adventures, one gigantic story. Hank will battle zombies, ghosts, and vampires while uncovering the dark secrets of Cloudydale High. Duck will travel through the cosmos, fight the evil Kelad Empire, and try to stop an alien pandemic. Alex will venture deep underground towards the Earth's core, encountering mutants, Amazons, and even uncovering the true fate of Atlantis.
