The Seventh Glitch

Meet "The Game": software that induces an online dreamscape where players can complete quests, pass missions and achieve everything they ever wanted. With nearly 12 million players on its launch date, it's the biggest success the corporate gaming community has ever seen. Even with the few hundred pirated players that managed to sneak in for a free ride. When the servers crash, hundreds of gamers are trapped inside The Game's now glitchy fantasy world and according to a random message mixed with rumour, their only chance at freedom is reaching a moderator. Newb player, BAD_KITTY_69, is separated from her boyfriend and teammate DASHING_WILLIAM_19 hours after the glitch that disconnected them from the menu system, rendering them unable to save their progress or exit The Game. As the glitches start to become more frequent, the players still trapped inside have to begin accepting the fact that they might be trapped in The Game forever.
