Story
You were sitting at your computer one day, totally absorbed and hypnotized by its trance-inducing coruscations,when suddenly, zap! -- A ligntning bolt came crashing through the window and surged through you and your computer. Blackness overwhelmed you for a few seemingly endless moments.
When your consciousness began to return, a swirling light of meaningless gyrations gradually slowed down until something could be made of them. And, as things slowly cleared, you found yourself somehow blended into the heart of the computer in a landscape molded from transistors and chips, caught up, captured & trapped in a world beyond the limits of human imagination, another dimension, another time and space, you would come to call the enchanted land of Neverwhere -- a world wherein you will be called ZAPPER!
Enchanting though this place called Neverwhere may be, you find yourself driven and compelled by one obsession. This feeling grows so intense that it overwhelms your every thought. This drive, this yearning to get out of this place and find some way to get back to the real world of your loved ones and friends becomes your dominant impulse. Your every action becomes more and more bent on getting out -- ESCAPING!
You have been summoned to return to Neverwhere, where you venture all the way to its capital city Zapperstein on a reluctant mission to save the Zargons from an evil ruler... but you never lose sight of your real mission which is to escape this bizarre world inside the computer & find the way back to the real world of your loved ones and friends.
