Story

Henry Stickmin wants to break a bank after seeing an ad for it on TV, and wants to rob it, but decides he doesn't want to. He sees an advertisement for a mall cop position at the West Orange Pavilion Mall and decides to pursue an honest job instead, choosing to be a good person instead of going down a path of evil. So Henry secures the night guard job. The main conflict of the story occurs on Black Friday when a notorious criminal known as Carl Ghrimes (also named Carl Brimes) breaks into the mall. The story puts the reader/player in the position of deciding Henry's actions and choices as he attempts to stop Carl and defend the mall. The story is a text-based adventure, in the style of the original Henry Stickmin games, focusing on the various choices and potential outcomes (fails and endings) resulting from Henry's decision to go straight.
