Although Hawkins, Indiana appears to be like an average town. Even though nothing may appear to be wrong, a secret lies beneath the surface. Through their experiments, the Hawkins National Laboratory has unleashed the horrors of the Upside Down upon the world. It is now in the hands of the children of the town to save it.

The recently launched game allows players to step into the shoes of the kids of Hawkins and have an exciting gaming experience. The kids are attempting to thwart the forces from the Hawkins National Laboratory and the malevolence from the Upside Down. To complete the challenge and be successful, players must work collectively and clear all the bundles of tokens before they lose time. The game covers the first two seasons of the show.
