Synopsis

"Black Mirror meets the drive-thru lane." — Dorset Echo

FLAME-GRILLED JUSTICE. DEEP-FRIED DEATH.

Twenty years ago, fast-food behemoths Ron’s Burgers and General’s Chicken decided that assassinating health-conscious TV chefs was just good business strategy. Fast forward through two decades of corporate escalation, and the high street has turned into an open war zone. Recruits don tactical body armour, trade mortar fire for menu supremacy, and proudly lay down their lives for free extra-value meals for life.

Enter Marcus.

He isn't a hero. He isn't a veteran strategist. He’s just a four-star shift worker who went into the walk-in freezer during a shift in the early 2000s and got accidentally preserved at minus eighteen degrees.

Thawed out into a smog-choked wasteland where drones scan retinas for unlogged assets, the grease is pressurized, and the propaganda is turned up to eleven, Marcus just wants to find out what happened to the girl he loved. Instead, he’s slapped with a spatulated rifle, diagnosed with "Fryer Fog" and drafted straight to the frontlines of Camp Burger.

In a world where the choice is simple, grill or be grilled, Marcus is about to learn that the menu isn't the only thing getting cooked.

“A pitch-black, grease-slicked satire of corporate madness, where customer service is forced, the jingles are military marches, and the fries are strictly to die for.”
