After the happenings in Team Xtreme: Operation Weather Disaster the evil Jonah Rainwater changed himself and became the head of a environment protection group. But something seems to be fishy about their research labs and so the player starts an investigation as a new member of Team Xtreme.

In a 360° view the player searches his surroundings, collects items and solves inventory based puzzles, e.g. repairing a hydroelectric facility. In FMV sequences the player gets briefed before each assignment. In the course of the game the player gets access to a robot which offers extensive information about the environment which are needed to solve more complicated problems like a spreading oil layer.
