Synopsis
Adaptive Learning Industries is set to launch the New Day update via unpopular legislation, exposing Uncanny Alley's "Metizens" to memory-wiping radio frequency waves.
Gh0st, a cyberpunk hacker, leads escaped detainees and her sentient bot, Atom, toward freedom via a hacked portal before a fascist corporation erases their memories. As they evade capture, they must decide: escape to the open metaverse or stay and fight for their freedom──and the digital city they love.
.This is a multi-participant interactive program that requires simultaneous participation. Please arrive on time to ensure a proper experience for yourself and others.
