It's not a game anymore.

Summary

Tessa says we all make choices. Vale Four has built the ultimate choice game.

Snarecraft is the ultimate Assistive Reality Game. It's made to hunt; the hunting stakes are as high as they can be.

Hespa and Blake have fled the island. They're going to testify. The forces of Neuroplex are going to pursue them with the most vicious hunters they can find — an army of gamers.

It's more than just a hunt in the game, though. The game architecture helps track the quarry, because they're looking for the coder. Hespa made the game, and now they hope it unmakes her.

The advance parties divide into three teams, each a different approach. Team Thorns is led by Queen Tessa — the path of absolute brutality. Team Alchemy is the path of calculation and foresight. (All the titles in the Snarecraft Cycle are drawn from alchemy.) Team Flowers is all randomness and vibes.

Listeners will find out which pack hunts best. The path and the stakes are as high as possible; this is much more than a game.
