Two years after graduation, three college roommates are still living in the same house and spending more time playing video games than moving through the outside world. When a big fight sparks a competition among them to "get a real life," all are propelled into the game of growing up. As the artificial stakes of the virtual world melt into real consequences, they discover that adulthood may not be the hero quest they wanted, but perhaps it's the one they need.
