In the very near future, a tech corporation named NeuroPromise will release the XR Fury eidolon system--a breakthrough product combining cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Reality, and Neural Implants to create an entirely new way to experience reality. 

XR Fury promises total gamification, claiming to enhance both work and play by manipulating what you see, hear, and feel, all the while adjusting your moods with dopamine and cortisol balancing. No side effects. Just endless blissful productivity. Or so they say.

The latest iteration, XT Crisis, brings the eidolon system to children. NeuroPromise claims this new system will help children learn while keeping them constantly entertained and safe from all threats.

You are Dr. Gibson, a recovering poet turned academic with a deep interest in eidolon systems. Suffering from your own mysterious traumas, you initially see great potential in this technology to improve the fractured education system. But as an ordinary dinner party with your colleagues descends into chaos, you soon realize the magnitude of your mistake.

Explore a world teetering on the brink of collapse in XT Crisis: The Activation, a dystopian horror story about love, guilt, redemption, and sacrifice. How far will you go to protect the ones you love? How long can you stay rational as your reality is twisted by an omniscient narrator within your own mind? Will you save the future, or become it?
