A cargo airplane crashed somewhere in the vast areas of the Amita mountain range. It was carrying a large shipment of beagles headed to the CutLab, a huge animal testing facility. The lab is upset about losing its precious testing material and is deploying a biohazard division determined to reclaim its "property". They operate under strict orders: seize usable specimens, dispose of the rest! We are sending our elite animal rescue squad to save as many dogs as possible before the lab's grunts confine them back to the life of endless misery.
Go!

Trivia:

• The initial Rescue: The Beagles prototype was created way back in 2008 for a prominent game jam. It was built from scratch in only two weeks. The Beagles won the jam, amongst hundreds of entries!
  
• The game's story was inspired by real events. An actual beagle abuse incident took place at a veterinary institute in developer's hometown. The news about it hit the front pages and caused public outrage. Near that time the developer Nenad was regularly hiking the Alps. On one such hike, a heated discussion about beagles took place. This created an unlikely fusion of beagles and mountain peaks in Nenad's head and thus the game idea was born.
