In it, you play as Doc Clock, who, along with his robotic bag, Sack, goes through time and tries to turn Doc's cat, Franklin, back from a cactus. The main gimmicks come from being able to rewind time to fix your mistakes, and Doc Clock's ability to make vehicles via sticking a whole bunch of random crap together.
