The game starts out with a guy named Rin discovering that his soul was stolen by the island of Tong-Nou, presumably, for eating, and if he doesn't get his soul back then he'll weaken and eventually die in emptiness. Rin decides to go and retrieve his soul, but before he does, his friend Yashiro gives him a temporary soul which will last for forty-nine days. When he gets there it turns out the island is a giant green human head floating in the darkness, and in order to continue your quest, you have to enter the head through one of the orifices. The game only [[Mind Screw|gets]] [[Up to Eleven|better]] from there. By the way, it was created by Osamu Sato, who is also responsible for [[LSD Dream Emulator]], which explains [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made On Drugs?|much]].

The game is very obscure and not many people in the West know about it. There's a sequel, but it's even more obscure and unheard of and was only released in Japan, so literally nothing is known about it except that it's called "Chu-Teng" ("Chuuten"?).
