Synopsis

In the distant future, every crime, no matter how small, gets you thrown in prison. However, it’s equally as “easy” to get out – by winning a series of deadly virtual reality games against the wardens and their different machinery, the Red-Black Course.

Rex – a young boy thrown in jail for reasons he can’t remember.

Zain – a teenage tyrant of the cells stuck because of an offense he didn’t commit.

Follow the story of the two as they form the most unlikely team to beat the virtual world, uncover the truth behind their pasts, and reclaim their futures.
