Summary

A typical evening at a local bar erupts into chaos as members of a Special Forces strike team descend through the roof to kidnap a young girl, Dominique. Three bouncers–Sion, Volt, and Kou–come to the rescue, only to see the invaders grab Dominique, retreat through a window, and escape. Now it’s up to you to save Dominique either alone or simultaneously with three friends. With The Bouncer’s 3D combat environment, battles can take place anywhere.
