Synopsis/Details
This sci-fi adventure starts when Aaron, “Mr. Nice Guy,” sets up a week-long camping get-away in a remote cabin as a celebration for the gang’s recent high school graduation. Kailee (Aaron’s secret crush) unfortunately shows up with her new boyfriend Johnny, star quarterback, and arrogant prick. Johnny immediately, and continuously, takes advantage of Aaron’s niceness in that oh-so-subtle way that you can’t quite call him out on it. With a massive thunderstorm keeping the group inside the cabin, they decide to play a virtual reality zombie video game that is indistinguishable from real life. Players can even feel pain. A power surge causes the game to glitch which traps the players, leaving them unable to exit the game. And worse, safety protocols are disabled. Meaning if you die in the game, you die in real life. With the only option of escape being to beat the game, the players are forced to play.
