The Story of Super Neptunia RPG
The self-proclaimed heroine, Neptune, awakens in a familiar environment with no memories other than her name. With the help of a mysterious girl named Chrome and three other familiar faces from the Neptunia series, Neptune goes in search of her memories through the mysterious dimension to try to regain her memory. Little do they know, the world they inhabit is under attack by an enemy who wants to take civilization back to the time where 2D reigns supreme. Can Neptune and her friends save the world and 3D games as we know it, or will they be flattened into two dimensions forever
