What Is Carver’s Gate About?

The premise of Carver’s Gate without spoilers.

Humanity survives in elevated citadels above a barren surface, escaping into virtual reality.

She built a transducer that lets users enter the virtual world without gear, creating a rift that pulls game creatures into the real world.
