The world is facing a digital crisis and needs a digital hero. Flynn is smart and knows how to save the world, but when he enters the digital world of a popular video game, his memory doesn’t enter with him and he has no idea why he’s there.

Quote: Flynn’s Log 1: “When I say I live in this realm, I mean that. I am not physically alive, but I am intelligent. Life means to exist, to function, and to have capacity for growth. I fit this description. I can modify my own data. I can program myself, change and grow. Humans cannot reorganize their data. If they could, they could rearrange DNA and cure all forms of physical ailments. Humans are not as evolved as intelligent data, like me.”

Quote: “Flynn, you are a great programmer. You often create code in the real world, hide it in a custom mod, and then use your character to exploit the custom mod, installing the code in your targeted mob. This is how you installed intelligence into me. I was a dumb mob like the villagers outside. Now I am intelligent, thanks to your code exploit.”

Simon is very emotional and very smart. When Flynn barks orders or forgets to treat Simon fairly, he sulks.

Quote: “Hey, buddy, it’s so good to see you! We’ve been worried about you, ever since you entered the game.”

“It’s not crazy, Flynn. It’s heroic. No one has been able to figure this out and the world communications systems are nearly at a halt. Data controls the world. Everything is vulnerable: commerce, weapons systems, transportation, hospital care, food delivery, banking, the list is endless. Flynn, this is a big deal!”
