22 parts Ongoing My mouth grew dry as I stared at the red eyes looking in our direction. My heart was racing fast as I was pressed tightly against Austin, who himself did his hardest not to move. I glanced at him for a second, and he was staring at me with a frown. Obviously my expression was revealing how terrified I was. I looked again at the eyes and took a deep breath in and out as it turned and slowly began to walk away. We were well hidden. It worked.

I just wanted to spend my days in peace, streaming horror games and finding a way to move out of my parent's home. So when Thalia suggested I stream a new viral, horror game: Game-lock, I didn't think much of it.
But Game-Lock is a trap, and now I am trapped in an actual horror game. In order for me to escape, I need to beat all 100 levels -- or die trying.
But I am not alone. There are others in this server with me, sharing the exact same fate that I do. Austin, a man who knows how to fight, with his 12 year old nephew, Rey, a guy who never played a horror game before in his life but is quick on his feet, and Hayden, a flirt with good survival instincts.
But if anyone knows anything about horror games, it's the fact that escaping horror game comes at a cost. There is no way we're coming back in one piece -- or alive.
And there is far more to this game or to my teammates than what meets the eye...
