Dr. Atsuko Chiba is a research psychologist who uses a device called the DC Mini to enter her patients' dreams, wherein she adopts the alter-ego "Paprika". When the device is stolen, she must stop rogue elements from merging the dream and waking worlds.
When stolen technology allows dreams to bleed into the waking world, reality itself begins to fracture into surreal, kaleidoscopic chaos. This visual feast demands your attention as a digital ghost hijacks the subconscious to collapse the boundary between sleep and life.
