Parappa, our hero, a hep-cat of a dog, finds that wooing dainty Sunny the flower is easier said than done. But when he gets down and out, he simply believes in himself, and works up the courage to seek help from some of the city's most talented rhymers. Parappa the Rapper's deceptively simple style of gameplay, of memorizing buttons and keeping rhythm, gives one ample opportunities to enjoy the game's artistic merit, of which there is quite a lot!
