Academy All-Star Seth Wright was already less-than-enthusiastic about his role in the annual school play, broadcast nationwide in thrilling Virtual Reality - and that was before he discovered there was a glitch in the program hungry for his blood.

Now, Seth and the rest of the cast are trapped in a hyper-realistic swords-and-sorcery adventure - one that's so realistic, the digital dogs, dragons, and dark wizards can kill you for real; faster than you can say "Game Over."

With time running out, and the murderous glitch sending ever-more deadly enemies his way, Seth must reluctantly step into the role of hero and leader - and learn an important lesson if he's to have any hope of saving his friends.
