Synopsis

The massively multiplayer online virtual reality game ‘CyberQuest’ has been hijacked by viruses, corrupting the game’s files and not allowing users to login or log out. An admin of CyberQuest uses his custom private antivirus hardware codenamed ‘Ikarus’, which consists of software and hardware that physically converts the user into digital data to control an antivirus program manually and use it for combat in digital space, allowing them to deal with anomalies in the antivirus process that cannot be dealt as easily via traditional methods.

Use Ikarus to destroy as many viruses as possible and compete for the best high score!
