Act 1
DADNAPPED! First Playthrough: The Journey to the Bad Ending
This outlines the linear progression of events Joe BrickLayer experiences on his initial adventure.
Act 1: The Disappearance & First Steps
Home Life & The Cereal Crisis:
Joe BrickLayer is at his Anthill Home with Queen SamAntha and Little Timmy.
Timmy expresses his desire for "CinnomAnt Sweet Treats."
It's discovered there's no milk in the house.
Joe decides to go out and buy milk, intending to return immediately.
The Outside World & Kidnapping:
Joe ventures outside the Anthill Home.
He navigates the area with two shops, finding only one accessible.
Joe successfully purchases the milk.
Immediately after buying the milk, Joe is kidnapped by a secret organization, The Agency.
Facility Escape & First Ally:
Joe awakens in an unknown Facility, held captive.
He hears a voice calling out: Harold Flowers, a landscaper bee, who is also imprisoned nearby.
Harold teaches Joe about his inherent "Dad Powers" (earth/dirt/mud/rock abilities) in a solo battle tutorial.
Joe uses his newfound powers to escape his cell and fights through the Facility, encountering Agents disguised as milkmen.
Joe confronts and defeats the Agency Doorman, a silly mini-boss guarding the exit.
