When Bindi's best friend Maddy falls into a mysterious catatonic state during a session on her new DreamWalker VR-a birthday gift that promised unparalleled adventures-it baffles everyone, even the doctors. But Bindi's tech-savvy twin, Beam, uncovers startling data: Maddy might have vanished into a dangerous and uncharted digital realm, her own bespoke metaverse.

Driven by loyalty and fear, Bindi knows that the peril of becoming trapped like Maddy is immense, yet the risk is worth it. With her determined companions at her side, she plunges into the virtual world, where fantastical landscapes and shadowy dangers lurk at every turn. In this treacherous digital wonderland, finding Maddy is their only mission. If they fail, Maddy could be lost in her fantasy forever.

Join Bindi and her friends in a race against time through layers of increasingly perilous digital realms. Can they save Maddy and escape, or will they too become prisoners of the metaverse?
