A woman named Elisabeth wakes up, not knowing where she is or what happened, to find she is in a lift. Every so often, the lift stops, and she must go out on a floor and seek collectables, and avoid a monster, to power it again. How deep does the lift go? How many floors are there? How many monsters must she face? And how can Elisabeth escape? Who knows?
In the canon ending, Elisabeth finally manages to escape, but has to go on the run through Bear County while operatives from the Doom Facility continue to pursue her. She defeats them but becomes stuck in the void while doing so, leading into her appearance in Dave.EXE when Edgy Dave rescues her.
