Immortal gods, online gaming, and a reincarnating goldfish ... this gamer's life is about to level up.
Las Vegas, 1983; a landfill site becomes a graveyard for unwanted Atari cartridges. An on-stage regression seance tears open a passage to another dimension.
Present-day; a sequence of cryptic messages and the haunting cry of a spirit animal force the up-all-night gamer, Lars Nilsson, to be kicked from his latest high-stakes obsession.
As the puzzle pieces of Lars' previous life fall into place, he is propelled on a journey more challenging than any game, to a land where magical creatures command the purple skies and shadow animals patrol the streets like deadly sentinels.
But what do the challenges of this otherworld have to do with a reclusive gamer, and can Lars come to terms with the true origins of his identity before the land of the dead is lost to a powerful primordial force?
