The games take place mostly on Earth where the furon Cryptosporidium, also known as Crypto, is tasked by his superiors to gather furon DNA locked inside human brain stems in order to save his race from cloning themselves into extinction. In the first game, Crypto's objectives also include investigating what happened to his previous clone. The second game features Crypto hunting for revenge, after the KGB try to assassinate him and successfully destroy the mothership and his Mission officer, Orthopox, as well as exterminating the furon enemy from the Martian War, the blisk. A spin-off for the Wii involves Crypto protecting Pox's new fast food chain using a giant robot mech disguised as the restaurant's mascot, called "Big Willy."

Twelve years have gone by since Crypto defeated Majestic and took over the United States. Othropox 13 has died after a Russian nuclear missile destroyed the mothership, along with Gastro the janitor. Both Pox and Gastro downloaded their consciousnesses into personal holographic projectors designed to house furon minds in the event their bodies were lost. Pox's unit, dubbed a HoloPox, allows him to communicate with, advise, and vex Crypto down on Earth. Gastro's projector unit is fitted with a blaster as a means of offense. Later in the game, Gastro is unlocked and used as a weapon, and he will fight beside Crypto and offer him support. | Twelve years have gone by since Crypto defeated Majestic and took over the United States.

Crypto 137 has died of unknown causes, but appears in Big Willy Unleashed and Crypto 138, a clone with pure furon DNA harvested from human brains, has taken his place as the President. Crypto 138 is the first furon in a millennia to possess genitalia, as his pure DNA has not been corrupted by radiation. When the KGB destroy the mothership and Pox, Crypto must find a way to stop them from destroying America. Along the way, he fights Ninjas and the giant Takoshimese monster Kojira; meets Reginald Ponsonby-Smythe, the leader of the British Majestic and Silhouette's lover; and romances Natalya Ivanova, a rogue KGB agent. He also comes across the blisk, the dreaded enemy that the furons thought they defeated in the Martian War. | Crypto 137 has died of unknown causes, but appears in Big Willy Unleashed and Crypto 138, a clone with pure furon DNA harvested from human brains, has taken his place as the President.
