Backstory
Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder WHERE you are … The
universe is going dark and it’s up to you Konki, Stellar
Guardian, to put things right. Dr. Dark Matter and his roving
band of space thieves have stolen many of the Constellation
Stones that make up the heavens. Some stones have been sold to
unscrupulous space types while others were lost during the
getaway. Whatever the situation, you must come through. Suit-up,
power-up, and live up to the task at hand. Recover the lost
Constellation Stones and once again bring light to the night
sky.
