A woman finds herself trapped in a virtual circus where she and five other humans are subject to the whims of a wacky AI ringmaster. In this digital purgatory they must face frightening NPCs and cope with their own personal traumas.
Under the direction of the circus's ringmaster, an artificial intelligence named Caine, six humans—Pomni, Jax, Ragatha, Gangle, Kinger, and Zooble—who have become trapped in the titular circus engage in nonsensical adventures to distract themselves from their situation, all while at risk of losing their sanity and "abstracting" into digital monstrosities.
