Due to a faulty new alarm system installed by Red (the security manager) the Candy Collection machine has gone AWOL and as a result of this a whole load of candies have been scattered to all four corners of the factory. It is the players job to help Red, Yellow and Ms Green to work together as a team and battle with the factory guardians such as Cupid, Uncle Sam and the Easter Bunny in an effort to collect up all the Candies before Santa comes to town.

Each of the characters has a special ability, Red can fly, Ms Green is a tennis ace and Yellow can jump extra high and all of these abilities are needed in order to collect up all of the missing candies and win the game.
