Codey, the young king of the Golden Compiler Kingdom, is reluctantly stepping into power at a time when the stability of the code underlying time and space has been placed in jeopardy by the ambitions and irresponsibility of one mad AI genius. The actual and digital worlds meld and interact in this place outside our time and, in a twist, the power of AI becomes key to restraining and stabilizing the chaos unleashed through arrogance and ambition of one rogue genius.
Codey navigates malicious, unstable codes and shifting unstable alliances as he struggles to understand the reach and effects of the disordered code that threatens the stability of his world and places his own family in peril. In the course of multiple challenges spread across space and time Codey and his allies reestablish stability in the kingdom and the digital world, but their incaution sets up an even greater adventure requiring brains, heart, commitment, and a sense of consequences.
Code and Conquer tells the story of continuous struggle in a singular world where the digital and actual have combined, a universe where people can see code and interact with avatars. In this wide-open setting, our hero and his dragon travel through time in search of stability and continuity which is to be prized above all. In this world the fundamentals of an ordered ethics are as critical as ordered code. The world depends on it.
