Rooms Summary
There was a time in Earth’s past when it could no longer
sustain life, and a group of humans decided to leave the planet behind. That group multiplied and spread
throughout the galaxy. Just as a
person might skip across a shallow pond, moving from stone to stone, the human
race gradually stretched across the Milky Way, jumping from one planetoid to
another in the hope of finding another jewel, another Earth-like planet. On each of these outposts, the humans lived
inside protected settlements called lifeglobes.
In this time of exploration and colonization, the people in each
of these desolate settlements developed extremely sophisticated holographic Rooms to entertain themselves and help
fill the void that had been created by constantly having to live inside an
enclosure, always separated from the outside, never being able to walk open and
free beyond their home.
In one particular lifeglobe on planet R-131, rumors had
spread about a Room that was
unparalleled for its reality and difficulty. All the best players were moving to R-131 to play this Room. For some, it had become an obsession. This Room, however, had not been designed for their entertainment or
pleasure. It had been created to
change the course of human history.
