They brought Salt and Pepper back together after Salt became obsessed with a bird. BK insists his holes helped Helen the Ranger get rid of all the snakes in the park (along with everything else).

Gameplay is a series of flashbacks, all hole-centric, explaining how everyone ended up in the hole, what they lost. Lore, worldbuilding detail and a lot of really good, deadpan comedy can be found in the Trashopedia (an end-of-level accounting of everything the hole has swallowed, complete with pitch-perfect, occasionally hilarious item descriptions).

The rest of the story (minus the final climax) takes place at the bottom of the hole, with all of the swallowed townsfolk gathered around a campfire, and Mira trying to explain to BK why he's the bad guy in this story and BK trying to explain why he's the victim. By being such a good employee, he has won a remote-controlled quad-copter (again, stay with me), which Mira smashes in a rage. Spoiler alert: He's kind of a jerk.Īt the beginning of the game, we've already arrived more or less at the end.
