A condemned prisoner plays a fatal affection game to escape an undying lord's cursed castle.
Erin opens her eyes in a haunted fortress ruled by Victor, an immortal master who binds her to a trial where in-game death kills her for real. Freedom demands she push his affection meter from nothing to maximum while surviving carnivorous plants, a disturbing child, and ruthless mechanics. Calculated moves blur into genuine attachment as she maneuvers through each lethal layer. When the final reckoning arrives, she bargains her own path home for his sake.
