In a not-so-distant dystopian future, the inhabitants of the polluted and overpopulated city of Neo Chicago are tormented by the crime syndicate the Yakuza. As a countermeasure, the police have introduced a new initiative - the witness program - where replicants, biotechnological marvels, take over the memories of frightened witnesses and reveal them in court cases.
The scenario is about a group of four replicants on a mission to gather memories from witnesses that takes them through acid rain and neon holograms in Neo Chicago together with their human police agent and with the Yakuza hot on their heels. Along the way, they struggle with who they are and what they are to each other. Because memories in this case, not only give new personality traits, but also uncomfortable truths.
The scenario is inspired by Blade Runner, but set in its own world, and there is no requirement to have seen a Blade Runner film to play along.
