[edit] About The Game
It all started when General Plastro, the general of the Tan army, was captured by the Green Army and Vikki didn't have a good story for the newspaper, Green Plastic News. Vikki found out that Sarge, her boyfriend, was going on a dangerous mission. She decided to follow him.
As Vikki follows Sarge to his mission, she ends up in a giant chessboard and a candy store. Then Vikki had to fight off gingerbread men to continue her mission for a better story. Now, Vikki found Sarge trapped in a castle by the gingerbread men and has to save him by using her arrow techniques to shot down a plastic pig. After Vikki saves Sarge, he snitches on her by telling her father, Jack Grimm. Vikki starts an argument with her dad and stormed out of the room. Then as she walks back to her army base, a green army man solider gave her a letter from an unknown person. The letter said, " Follow this map to find a better story. Leave now and don't tell anyone." Vikki did what the letter said.
Vikki uses a camera to take all of her pictures on her trip. During her trip, she was ambushed by Rage, Bridgette's robot friend who will do whatever she says, and was forced to the prehistoric jungle toy world. That was also when she met Leo the lion, who was also forced to the same world. Vikki befriends the lion and they both help each other on this great adventure.
Bridgette didn't stay hidden in the game. She was one of the main characters of the game. She had a crush on Sarge and wanted to marry him. Bridgette had a love gun and she used it on Sarge. She almost got married to him, but Vikki stopped them, and found out that they had a bigger problem in their hands.
