## Synopsis

Sunraku is a champion of 'trash games' — the buggy, broken titles most players abandon — so when he finally dives into a beautiful, wildly popular VR world, his hard-won instincts for exploiting jank make him dangerously good. He quickly stumbles into hidden bosses and secrets most players never see, gathering an oddball crew along the way. It's a love letter to gaming that actually understands why we play, wrapped in fast, inventive action.
