Ctrl-Alt-Destroy

33 episodes - English - Latest episode: 3 months ago - ★★★★★ - 422 ratings

Starring Firefly’s Summer Glau as a video game designer who discovers that the game she created has been stolen as part of a top secret project—and might be the only thing keeping the world from plunging into war. 

While battling monsters and exploring dungeons in the world of Alternis, nations compete for real-world resources, and losing has catastrophic consequences. Desperate for help, Team USA hopes that bringing in the game’s actual designer—in secret—will give them the upper hand they need. 

But in a futuristic world where losing has catastrophic consequences, is the game itself playing fair?

Ctrl-Alt-Destroy is a Realm production, written by Andrea Phillips, Maurice Broaddus, Jacqueline Koyanagi, and E.C. Myers. Listen Away.
