The magical epos of Friesland's biggest hero.

Issam has one dream: to become a pro gamer. When his grades start to fail again, his mother has only one solution: she throws his computer in the trash, and his world collapses. What Issam doesn't know is that at that very moment, the real world is about to collapse as well. Malicious AI has taken over the newly opened arcade and brought the gaming world into the real world. Less than a few hours later, the BIVD (Supernatural Intelligence and Security Service) arrives at his door. Issam, along with the top eight gamers in the world, including his idol, Ripvis, must battle through five real-life game levels to defeat the AI. Will they be able to combine their skills and save the world?
